“I put a spell on you!” Spooky season kicked off with Hocus Pocus 2 premiering exclusively on Disney+ last Friday (Sept. 30). The sequel has gone on to become the No. 1 domestic movie premiere on the streaming platform to date.

Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy reprise their roles as Winifred, Sarah, and Mary Sanderson in the sequel to the 1993 Halloween classic. In Hocus Pocus 2, the 17th century witches are resurrected after a teenager lights the Black Flame Candle for the first time in 29 years.

With the Sanderson sisters back in Salem and out for revenge, it’s up to three high schoolers to try and stop the ravenous siblings from wreaking havoc on Hallow’s Eve.

Hocus Pocus 2 also stars Whitney Peak, Belissa Escobedo, Lilia Buckingham, Sam Richardson, Doug Jones, Hannah Waddingham, Froy Gutierrez, and Tony Hale. The film is produced by Lynn Harris, with original Hocus Pocus creator and producer David Kirschner, Ralph Winter (also from the original) and Adam Shankman serving as executive producers.
