Hocus Pocus kids look unrecognisable as they reunite for cult film's 25th anniversary

The hit film was first released in 1993 and as well as the all-star Sanderson sisters cast, which included Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy, it featured a great child cast.

Getting together at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery for a special anniversary bash the gang couldn’t resist sharing pictures of themselves now – showing Dani, Max and Allison all grown up.

Dani was famously played by Thora Birch, now 36,  who went on to have a hugely success career staring in American Beauty.

In the cult movie she played Max Dennison’s spoiled eight-year-old little sister.

Max, played by Omri Katz, was a teenager originally from LA who moves to Salem with his family.


He is responsible for bringing back the Sanderson sisters 300 years later on Halloween night.

His girlfriend Allison Watts, was played by Vinessa Shaw, now 42.

She is a wealthy native Salem resident, who forms a close bond with Dani.

The trio posed up with the film’s director Kenny Ortega – showing just how different they look these days.

Speaking about the film, Kenny said: “It’s a fun movie that just takes you away and there’s just magic there.

“We had a good time making it, and I feel that energy of what was present when we were making it is evident in the movie. You can see everyone’s having a good time. It’s there. It lives underneath the dialogue and underneath the music.”

The plot of the film centres on the Sanderson Sisters returning from the dead 300 years after being hanged for witchcraft.

Their comeback to life is thanks to the combination of a spell spoken before their demise and the accidental actions of teenager Max.

The sisters then have just one night to secure their continuing existence and all they need to do is sacrifice the lives of local children.
