Hocus Pocus... and Candy Corn

Hocus Pocus flopped in theaters in July of 1993, but like the famed Sanderson Sisters, it returned with a vengeance, becoming a cult classic on TV, VHS, and DVD. The sequel just premiered on DisneyPlus, so we decided to revisit the original!

Before the recap, we learn about the history of candy corn, discuss the making of Hocus Pocus, and talk all things Halloween. Megan confesses to dressing like Pocohontas... long before the Disney film, and Steve talks about his love of horror movies. 

Did the original hold up? Or are we just looking at it through rose-colored nostalgia goggles? Listen to find out!
