‘Hocus Pocus’ Board Game Announced
Players can face off against the Sanderson sisters in the upcoming board game based on Disney’s Halloween classic Hocus Pocus.
Comic Book reports that Ravensburger, who released last year’s Jaws and Horrified games, is releasing Disney’s Hocus Pocus: The Game, a new lighthearted take on the iconic film, in which two to six players will work together to stop the Sanderson witches before they can create a wicked potion. The new game features fantasy illustrations of the Sanderson sisters and other characters from the movie, a wooden Binx token, and spells, quotes, and potions pulled from the movie.
Disney’s Hocus Pocus was originally released in 1993 and stars Bette Midler, Kathy Najimy, and Sarah Jessica Parker as a trio of witches resurrected in the present day by an unwitting child named Max. As the Sanderson sisters try to brew a potion that would allow them to suck the souls out of children, Max and his friends try to stop them with the help of an immortal black cat named Binx.
Disney’s Hocus Pocus: The Game will be released in August 2020. The game will cost $19.99.
