A costume based on "Hocus Pocus" is easy to make with a few accessories.
"Hocus Pocus" is a classic Disney Halloween movie about a teenage boy and his little sister as they fight a trio of witches on Halloween night. You can easily put together a costume inspired by this movie by focusing on one of the film's characters, be it teenage hero Max, one of the Sanderson sister witches, Max's young sister Dani or Thackery Binks, a talking cat who helps Max and Dani on their quest.
Max
Max is the main character of the movie. He is 16 years old and dresses as a typical, 1990s teen. His outfit throughout the film consists of a pair of light blue jeans and a purple windbreaker jacket. He also wears white tennis shoes and a backward-worn baseball cap for parts of the film. His hair is brown, so if you have blond or red hair, consider spraying a temporary hair color onto your hair for the night.
Sanderson Sisters
The villains of the film, the Sanderson Sisters are a trio of colonial witches. The sisters are Winnie, Sarah and Mary, and they each wear long dresses in a colonial style with matching capes. Each sister wears one main color; Winnie wears green, Sarah purple and Mary red. Winnie and Sarah each carry a broom, while Mary carries a vacuum as she is unable to find a broom in the film. For added effect, you can pair your dress with a wig matching the hair color of each sister: Winnie has red hair, Sarah has blond hair and Mary has brunette hair. Sarah wears her blond hair long and down, while Winnie and Mary wear their hair up in stylized twists.
Dani
Dani is the little sister of Max, and she is dressed up as a cute witch for the whole of the film. Her witch's costume is easy to replicate with a few clothing items. She wears a long-sleeved orange T-shirt under a black vest. She pairs this with a black skirt and tights, and wears a witch's hat on her head. She also carries a pumpkin trick-or-treat bucket.
Thackery Binks
Thackery Binks is a character who was trapped in the body of a black cat by the Sanderson sisters centuries before the main plot of "Hocus Pocus" takes place. To dress as Binks for a Halloween costume, dress in black clothes and wear a headband holding cat ears on your head. Attach a long, black tail to the seat of your pants, and paint a cat nose and whiskers onto your face with face paint or eyeliner pencil.
