Hocus Pocus

The movie Hocus Pocus begins in a small town in 1693, were a boy named Thackery Binx realises his little sister has fled into the woods, under the control of a witch. Thackery rushes after his sister, Emily, and eventually finds a house where Emily has been captured. Inside the house, 3 ageing evil witches known as the Sanderson sisters, are brewing a potion in a cauldron. Winnie, the oldest sister, highlights that the potion, when drank by a child, has the ability to rejuvenate them and restore their youth. Before the witches can force the potion into Emily, Thackery stops them and starts a brawl with Winnie, and is soon defeated. The sisters then suck the life-force from Emily and their youth is restored, then cast a spell on helpless Thackery that he take the form of a black cat for eternity. Immediately, a mob of angry villagers wielding torches capture the sisters and prepare to hang the trio from a branch of a tree. Winnie's spell book reveals a prophecy that on All Hallows eve a virgin shall light the black flame candle and resurrect them. The sisters are then hanged and Thackery remains a cat, unable to reassure his parents that he has taken the form of a cat.

300 years later a boy named Max decides to enter the house on Halloween with his younger sister Andy and soon to be girlfriend. He decided to light the candle that would bring back the witches but he did not know that would happen. As soon as it was lit the witches appeared and were able to sense children in their home.

The rest of the movie is basically the 3 witches trying to capture Andy so that they can suck the life out of her and be young and beautiful forever. Of course they were defeated and turned to dust. This movie is creepy yet hilarious. I enjoy watching it durning the Halloween season.
