Book of Interest: Hocus Pocus and the All-New Sequel

Next Monday (7/16) will mark the 25th anniversary of Hocus Pocus, I absolutely love watching the movie, it's still a delightfully funny story. This should make fans of the movie really happy, Disney Publishing's Imprint line Freeform has just released the sequel to the movie today.

This is so cool, I can't wait to get my hands on this because not only does this book include the sequel but also a retelling of original movie.


Book: Hocus Pocus and the All-New Sequel by A.W. Jantha

Description:

Hocus Pocus is beloved by Halloween enthusiasts all over the world. Diving once more into the world of witches, this electrifying two-part young adult novel, released on the twenty-fifth anniversary of the 1993 film, marks a new era of Hocus Pocus. Fans will be spellbound by a fresh retelling of the original film, followed by the all-new sequel that continues the story with the next generation of Salem teens.

Shortly after moving from California to Salem, Massachusetts, Max Dennison finds himself in hot water when he accidentally releases a coven of witches, the Sanderson sisters, from the afterlife. Max, his sister, and his new friends (human and otherwise) must find a way to stop the witches from carrying out their evil plan and remaining on earth to torment Salem for all eternity.

Twenty-five years later, Max and Allison's seventeen-year-old daughter, Poppy, finds herself face-to-face with the Sanderson sisters in all their sinister glory. When Halloween celebrations don't quite go as planned, it's a race against time as Poppy and her friends fight to save her family and all of Salem from the witches' latest vile scheme.
