‘Hocus Pocus’ Schedule 2022: When Does the Halloween Classic Air on TV?
Ah say, into pi, alpha maybe, upendi! Loosely translated, that means: Fall has arrived, and that means it’s just about time for your “Hocus Pocus” rewatch — er, perhaps rewatches. There are a whole lot of opportunities for you to watch Disney’s Halloween classic this year, especially before (or after — we’re not judging what order you pick) you check out the sequel “Hocus Pocus 2” on Disney+.
As always, the semi-spooky comedy — which even “Hocus Pocus” creator David Kirschner recognizes might have been a touch too spooky for kids when it first came out — starring Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy is a staple of Freeform’s 31 Nights of Halloween programming through the month of October. Of course, “Hocus Pocus” wasn’t always the Halloween mainstay it is now. It’s been a long journey to get its many slots on TV. You can read more about that here, as a post-rewatch treat.
This year, the movie is set to be shown at least 13 times — fitting for obvious reasons — on the network, leading up to Halloween. That said though, you can also watch “Hocus Pocus” outside of those 31 days. Here’s when and where you’ll find it.
