What can be a better way to kick start the Halloween month other than binge-watching some of the scariest comedy movies of all time? While compiling the list of movies to watch this Halloween, don’t forget to add the 1993 film Hocus Pocus. The American fantasy comedy tickmarks all the boxes to keep you hooked to the television screens. The story revolves around a teenager Max Dennison who relocates to Salem with his family. 

While exploring his new home with his sister Dani and friend Allison, Max makes a blunder. Despite warnings from Allison, the teenage boy lights a cursed candle of Black Flame to set free three witches, namely Winifred, Sarah, and Mary, who were executed around 300 years ago. The film focuses on how three teenagers, with the help of a magic cat, stop the witches from becoming immortal. While Hocus Pocus is already a masterpiece, the makers have gifted the fans another blockbuster in the form of Hocus Pocus 2. Released on September 30, 2022, the movie is already making a lot of noise for all the right reasons. So, can you stream it on Netflix?

The three witches make a comeback in Hocus Pocus 2

The American supernatural film is written by Jen D’Angelo with Anne Fletcher and Walt Disney Pictures as its director and producer, respectively. The movie is entirely different from what was depicted in the 2018 book Hocus Pocus & the All-New Sequel. Written by A.W. Jantha, the book showcased Max and Allison’s daughter Poppy’s encounter with the Sanderson sisters.

However, Hocus Pocus 2 focused on the life of three completely different girls, Izzy, Becca, and Cassie. A shop owner tricked Izzy and Becca into resurrecting the three witches again after 29 years. This time, instead of taking a child’s life, the Sanderson sisters perform a forbidden spell. They set out on a journey of taking revenge on the descendant of Reverend Traske.

The film revolves around how the three young girls perform magic and spells to prevent Sanderson sisters from causing any harm. With the basic cleared, let us get to the vital question: Is Hocus Pocus 2 arriving on Netflix?

Where can you stream the sequel?

You might be disappointed to know that Hocus Pocus 2 is not available on Netflix. The chances of horror comedy streaming in the American service anytime in the future are slim because it is a Walt Disney Pictures production. All Disney productions end up on the film studio’s very own streaming platform. So, you can tune in to the Disney + Hotstar to watch Hocus Pocus 2 from anywhere across the globe.
