Hocus Pocus

By Karen Kier, Pharmacist on behalf of the ONU HealthWise team
Posted by Paula Scott on Thursday, November 4, 2021

Halloween weekend was full of movies including the 1993 film Hocus Pocus. The movie was released by Walt Disney Pictures on July 16, 1993 and did not recoup the expense to make the movie.  However, it has become a Halloween classic about three witches played by actors Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy who are brought back to present day from Salem, Massachusetts. The movie has developed a following around Halloween and can be seen on several channels including Disney+. Currently, there is a sequel being produced that is to be released in 2022 for those who are fans of the movie. The title of the film had me thinking about the meaning of hocus pocus.
