Starring Bette Middler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimi as Winifred, Sarah and Mary Sanderson, a trio of evil, albeit hysterical, witches Hocus Pocus had little impact on the box office and mainstream audiences upon its release. However, it has become one of the most popular Halloween movies of all time, as it continues to be a staple of Disney and Freeform’s annual Halloween lineup year after year, cementing a place in the Millennial and Generation Z childhood.
Hocus Pocus follows Halloween skeptic Max, (Omri Katz), his sister Dani, (Thora Birch) and love interest Allison (Vinessa Shaw) as they accidentally wake up the evil Sanderson sisters the night before Halloween by turning on the Eternal Black Flame candle. The three must end the witches’ reign of terror as they attempt to kidnap children for a traditional Halloween sacrifice. Hocus Pocus 2 will resume 30 years after the events of Hocus Pocus when the Sandersons are resurrected once again by a new group of teenagers, played by Belissa Escobedo, Whitney Peak and Lila Buckingham. It will also explore the origin story of the Sanderson sisters.
Now fans have the option to book a stay at an actual sister Sanderson cottage ahead Airbnb. The cottage is a replica of the historic home featured in the movies and will come with all the villainous haunts fans know and love. Based in the woods of Danvers, Massachusetts, the cottage will include the charming Handbook of Witchcraft and Alchemy, the cauldron where guests will get their hands on spells, and a chance to explore the haunted and historic neighborhood of Salem. The stay will end with a special screening of Hocus Pocus 2. Booking opens at 1:00 p.m. ET on Wednesday, October 12 for a stay on Thursday, October 20 and will be available for 1 night only.
What role does the cottage play in Hocus Pocus
The chalet is an integral part Hocus Pocus, as it sets the tone for presenting Sister Sanderson to the public as menacing and wicked witches. It also serves as a plot device to advance the story, because it is there that Max, Dani and Allison discover the remains of the Sanderson legacy. Although unknown to them at the time, their spirits will return to the cabin, and it is there that the trio will find the Black Flame to awaken them. The Sanderson Cottage is also where witches keep their mystical spellbooks, cast their enchantments, and imprison those who fight against them. Although the cottage plays an important role in hocuspocus, it seems based on the initial trailers for Hocus Pocus 2that the sequel takes a different route, with the Sandersons’ legacy on display in a store in Salem, rather than tucked away in their cottage.
However, based on the Airbnb listing, it looks like the chalet will be featured on screen quite frequently throughout Hocus Pocus 2. Whether the new trio of teens discover the witches’ hideout remains to be seen, but it looks like the Black Flame candle is lit somehow, meaning the cottage could make an appearance before the witches return. witches. All will be revealed when Hocus Pocus 2 debuts on Disney+ this Friday, September 30, but until then fans can check out sister Sanderson’s Cottage on Airbnb for now.
