New Show at Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party Will Cast a Spell on You

Summer may just be getting started, but I’m already looking forward to fall and the return of my favorite event at Magic Kingdom Park, Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party. And this year’s party will be extra fun with the introduction of an all-new show on the Castle Forecourt Stage.

In “Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular,” the mischievous Sanderson Sisters from Disney’s “Hocus Pocus” return to the mortal world for one night during the Halloween season. With only a few hours to run amuck, the three sisters decide to use their magic to throw the best, evil Halloween party this side of the graveyard!

With the help of the Disney villains, Winifred, Mary and Sarah gather together sinister shadows, nefarious nightmares and the power of their frightful friends to conjure the ultimate Hocus Pocus Party Potion and cast a spell on everyone in the Magic Kingdom Park. “Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular” features appearances by Dr. Facilier, Oogie Boogie, Maleficent and other great Disney villains, along with dancers, projections and special effects that combine to make this new show a not-to-be-missed Halloween treat.

“Hocus Pocus Villain Spelltacular” will be presented exclusively during Mickey’s Not-So-Scary Halloween Party, held select nights at Magic Kingdom Park from September 15 – November 1, 2015.

Interesting choice to bring back the Hocus Pocus sisters.

Surprised that there isn't an additional upcharge to see them.

The Sanderson Sisters!!! This is pretty cool. I might actually go to MNSSHP again.

I agree! It seems so weird that the "villains" from a movie from the early 90s is getting a headline spot @ the new show? I am excited though to see how this works!

I'm guessing this has something to do with the recent interview in which Bette Midler said she would be up to staring in Hocus Pocus 2, should Disney decide to bring back the franchise. Maybe Disney is seeing what kind of interest there is for those characters....maybe, seems kinda strange to involve these characters if they (Disney) arn't testing the waters for a new movie, IMHO

Now I'm looking forward to Sept 18 even more.

Loved Hocus Pocus - hope there is a Hocus Pocus 2!
