Winifred Sanderson; Witches Perform Spell At Party (HD)

Hocus Pocus (1993) clip.

The witches arrive at a halloween party in Salem and put a dancing spell on the guests through the song. "I Put A Spell On You."

I like how Winifred’s sisters didn’t understand what she was doing at first but knew to just follow her lead and they just fell in sync

[zigzaglychee]

I love how you can see her thinking and planning as she looks at the band, probably memorising the tune!

"Thank you, Max, for that marvelous introduction". You just gotta love Winnie.

This is such a Classic Halloween Movie. It will never get old. One of my favorites and gets me in the Halloween Spirit every year. Bette Midler did a Great job playing Winifred Sanderson. I don't think anyone else could have fit this Character besides her (:

This is easily the smoothest transition to a musical in a movie... it seemed so natural and plot coherent

I’ve literally seen this movie a hundred times. When we were kids we wore out the tape in the VHS and broke it. Bette Midler was so fantastic in this movie she will always be one of my favorite people.

I still can't understand why the Nostalgia Critic doesn't like this movie... this was a way to keep the adults out of the way... a way to get in a killer song... also a way to show how cunning and intelligent -the witches- Winifred is. This scene actually had a point.

The 90's jokes and hokieness are actually quite forgivable, because of the clever writing and its dazzling Halloween spirit.

Barely any plot holes. Memorable characters. Comedic and family-friendly, yet terrifying and climactic, even a good aesop at the end. Essential Halloween imagery. Fantastic soundtrack. A damn good Halloween family movie that's still being talked about (even made into merchandise now) since 1993. That to count for at least something.

They are icons, they are legends, and they are still the moment

I love how she stalks Max off the stage whilst singing and how each of the kids surrounded by the dancing Adults realise they are alone and that Note Bette Middler hits at the end always gives me goosebumps! Great movie❤❤❤

They had to be having fun doing this. This was a fantastic movie, and this scene was one of the funniest in it. When the actors are having fun, it just makes the movie better, because the audience can tell the movie was clearly made with genuine affection and enjoyment by the cast. Not enough movies these days have that crucial spark that turns a silly movie into something truly special. Hocus Pocus was made in the best possible era for it with the right cast to make it amazing!

Fun fact: when Bette says, "Hello Salem, my name is Winifred. What's yours?", it's a nod to her role in Gypsy (which also came out in 1993). In that film, towards the end, she sings, "Hello everybody, my name is Rose. What's yours?" Both are great movies!

I love the disgusted look on Winnie's face when the guy appeared to be singing to her.

[cainster]

It's just like "Screw it, let's put a spell on everyone while we're here, just because we're evil and we can do it. We've got five minutes. Let's go."

[KingdomHeartsFan]

This is just Winifred having a good time.

[Renata]

Did anyone else notice how creepy Mary's smile/laugh at around 3:29-3:30 is when you think about it? Not only did they realize Winifred's last minute, spontaneous plan worked, but she's genuinely amused and delighted by it knowing that everyone was literally going to dance until they died. I love it!

[devonmay]

It's always so telling to hiw smart and cunning winnifred is...at how quickly she can adapt and respond to her surroundings...how quickly she realised how to place a spell on the parents and keep them out of the way

[melv]

She literally is one of the greatest entertainers to ever exist sister Bette has been giving us gold for years. So glad they making a reboot.

[hollymilne]

after watching the second movie, it just highlights how iconic this movie really was. don’t get me wrong, the second movie was great, but the way this film incorporated the song in a way that made sense just made it ten times more epic.

[FilmNest]

They had amazing vocals for this and I never realized it until I was older 🥰🥰

[fantasticnerd]

I just can't stop laughing over their chaotic energy and the way they sway when walking
