It’s undeniable that one of the most classic Halloween movies of all time is Disney’s Hocus Pocus. The film has a little bit of everything for everyone: witches, spells, humor, zombies and everything else that truly makes Halloween, well, Halloween. But if we’re honest, one of the best things about the iconic film, starring Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy, is the writing. If you’re anything like me, then you too struggle to let spooky season go by without once belting out Winifred Sanderson’s “I put a spell on you,” or the many other memorable lines from the film that make you laugh. The movie has also held on to its relevance for nearly 30, amassing a fanbase so strong that many travel to Salem, Massachusetts just to see some of the places where the movie was filmed. If you consider yourself on this level of superfan, then you may also want to check out what the actors have been up to since and how much they have changed. Once you’re all caught up, you’ll have even more reasons look forward to its sequel, Hocus Pocus 2, which is set to stream on Disney + this fall.And if you still can’t get enough of the Sanderson Sisters, let our list of the most iconic Hocus Pocus quotes below inspire you to pull off your best inspired costume yet. “Oh, look.
