Season 2, Episode 5. We’re back for this year's Halloween SPOOKTACULAAAAAAR! It’s been some time so we thought it would be fun to come back with a biggy! Full of trick or treating, pumpkins, witches, magic spells and a talking black cat…it’s 1993’s Hocus Pocus. It’s a movie ‘witch’ is a Halloween staple and a cosy nostalgia trip for many. We’ve lost count of how many people have told us they can’t believe this one is rotten…does it deserve its rotten score? So DUUUDE! Join us as we do a deep dive into the movie’s entire plot, trivia, reviews and more. We’ll also talk about California related insults, books bound in human skin (honestly), and for some reason Gremlins 2…

Synopsis: After 300 years of slumber, three sister witches are accidentally resurrected in Salem on Halloween night, and it is up to three kids and their newfound feline friend to put an end to the witches’ reign of terror once and for all.
