New Halloween Stage Show, Featuring 'Hocus Pocus,' Coming to MNSSHP!

At the beginning of the month, I reported that Villains' Mix and Mingle would not be performing during Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party this year. At the time, details on the replacement show were unannounced.

This week, Disney Parks Blog delivered an early Halloween treat: the new stage show features the Sanderson Sisters from Hocus Pocus!

This will probably be their reaction to the overwhelmingly overjoyed fan community...

From Disney Parks Blog:

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.

Unfortunately, the witches will not be mingling with guests after the show, though their villain friends (reportedly) still will.

I, for one, am excited to see this well-loved but overlooked villains come to Walt Disney World!

The show runs September 15-November 1, on select nights.

ttfn!
