The sequel to the 1993 cult classic film was released last year in time for Halloween, and reunites witches Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy from the original as they return to Salem after being unknowingly summoned by three teenage girls.

The Hocus Pocus 2 cast also features Whitney Peak (Chilling Adventures of Sabrina), Belissa Escobedo (American Horror Stories) and newcomer Lilia Buckingham as young protagonists Becca, Izzy and Cassie, who take on the rather tricky task of defeating the trio of wily witches.

Wondering how you can watch the trio bring chaos to Salem once more, or whether you can still watch the original? Read on to find out.
