If, like the Sanderson sisters, you've been waiting three centuries for the Hocus Pocus franchise to be resurrected (or even just 29 years since the first movie), good news: Hocus Pocus 2 is out today.

The long-awaited second installment of the classic Halloween movie hit Disney's streaming service Disney Plus at midnight PT/ 3 a.m. ET on Sept. 30, just in time for spooky season.

Starring the original Sanderson Sisters from the first movie released in 1993 -- Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy -- the sequel sees the witches resurrected again as the black flame candle is lit once more in Salem.
