It’s Halloween season, and so Hocus Pocus fans are ready to stream the holiday classic, but where is the film available, and for how much? Here’s everything you need to know about where to watch Hocus Pocus, a 1993 comedy from Walt Disney Pictures. Hocus Pocus focuses on three witches who are brought to life on Halloween in Salem, Massachusetts. While trying to adjust to modern life, they also plan to consume the souls of local children. The story premise was partially conceived by David Kirschner, who is best known for producing the original Child’s Play films.
Directed by Kenny Ortega (High School Musical), Hocus Pocus features witch performances by Bette Midler, Kathy Najimy, and Sarah Jessica Parker as the Sanderson sisters. Thora Birch and Vinessa Shaw have supporting roles. In October 2019, after years of speculation, a Hocus Pocus sequel was announced and will be available to stream at Disney+, and with the original stars reprising their roles.
While Hocus Pocus wasn’t a critical or commercial success upon its initial release, the film has become regarded as a cult classic over the years. Now that so many people are streaming movies at home during Halloween, it’s not hard to find Hocus Pocus online - or is it?
