Hocus Pocus Movies & More Tour

Hocus Pocus Movies & More Tour

It's the 30th anniversary of Hocus Pocus, the movie we all loved as kids (and still as adults) where Allison, Max, Dani and Binx the talking cat need to save the town from the evil Sanderson sisters. Relive the drama as we show you the locations where this movie was shot as well as tell you behind-the-scenes anecdotes. We'll also tell you about Hocus Pocus 2 (not shot in Salem). However, Disney chose our guide to be in the movie as a Tour Guide so you will get inside information about the sequel that you can't get anywhere else. In addition, you will learn other ways how Salem has worked its way into Hollywood. We've had over 100 TV shows, movies, documentaries and reality shows shot in Salem.. The first movie filmed here was a silent movie in the late 19th century. And there are more coming every year. Some are about our witch hysteria and ghosts, but many have nothing to do with our notorious past. It's not just a bunch of Hocus Pocus!
