The ‘Hocus Pocus’ trio reunite in costume for a good cause

The countdown to Halloween is on and since everyone needs some nice things heading into the last little bit of 2020, the original Hocus Pocus trio has some good news for us. Or at least they do if you’re a fan of the classic, (not too) spooky movie, and have been hoping the Sanderson sisters would recreate some of that OG magic.Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy gave fans a sneak peek at their upcoming October 30 reunion special over the weekend, stirring up cauldrons everywhere. “Your 3 fav witches... are returning for 1 night only,” 74-year-old Midler shared on Instagram along with a photo of everyone in costume from a dress rehearsal. “In Search of the Sanderson Sisters is the best thing to happen to #Halloween since Hocus Pocus + Reeses Pieces.”

Fans will want to break out those Reese Pieces on October 30 at 8 pET sharp, to be exact. Tickets for the virtual event are on sale now and purchasing one will get you much more than access to the three leads in costume. In Search of the Sanderson Sisters: A Hocus Pocus Hulaween Takeover will be hosted by Elvira, Mistress of the Dark, while a slew of famous faces are also stopping by. How famous, you ask? How does a list that includes Meryl Streep, Jennifer Hudson, Glenn Close, Billy Crystal and Martin Short sound?The names don’t end there either. Billy Eichner, Adam Lambert, John Stamos, Samantha Diaz, Todrick Hall, Anjelah Johnson-Reyes, Alex Moffat, Sarah Silverman, Sophie von Haselberg, Thora Birch, Omri Katz, and Doug Jones are also making guest appearances, and even more surprise personalities are expected to stop by the night-of.
