A closer look at the story
When the Sanderson sisters were executed in Salem for practising witchcraft, everyone assumed they were gone for good. Three hundred years go by. Then, one Halloween night, three children unwittingly make a mistake that brings the three witch sisters back to life. Awakened after centuries, Winifred, Sarah and their sister waste no time in making up for lost years and spreading terror through the town. For Max, Dani and Allison, there is now just one task: to stop the witches before the night is over. Accompanying them on this tricky adventure is a newfound feline friend. Directed by Kenny Ortega, this 96-minute 1993 fantasy family comedy brings Bette Midler and Sarah Jessica Parker together with Omri Katz, Thora Birch and Vinessa Shaw.
