Hocus Pocus 2: Plot
We don’t know much about the plot of Hocus Pocus 2, but we do know that three young women will bring the Sanderson Sisters back to Salem, Massachusetts by accident. Like the first movie, it will probably follow the main characters as they try to stop the three witches from causing too much trouble in an otherwise peaceful town.
Jen D’Angelo wrote the script for the sequel, which will be directed by Anne Fletcher. Kenny Ortega was in charge of the first one, and Mick Garris and Neil Cuthbert wrote the script.
In the sequel to the classic Halloween movie from 1993, three young women light a Black Flame Candle and accidentally bring the three witches back to modern-day Salem.
When they realized they were wrong, the three girls had to stop the child-hungry witches from wreaking havoc on the whole town and putting their friends in danger.
