Winifred Sanderson for the character ask
Favorite thing about them: Her sheer flamboyance and zest for her wicked deeds, and her perfect blend of comedy and genuine dangerousness. She's a villain I love to hate.
Least favorite thing about them: Well, she is an evil, child-murdering witch, and she abuses her sisters too.
On a meta level, I might have some concerns about a well-known Jewish actress (who's very "Jewish looking" too, with her frizzy red hair and big nose) playing a witch whose particular brand of evil, sucking out children's life force in a magic ritual, has some obvious parallels with the blood libel legend. But of course the parallels between antisemitic stereotypes and witch stereotypes are common throughout all media with witches. Besides, the character isn't Jewish, she's from a Puritan village in colonial Massachusetts, and if Bette Midler had no problem playing the role (in fact she calls it her all-time favorite role), why should anyone else object?
Three things I have in common with them:
*I like to sing and perform.
*I'm sensitive to rude remarks about my looks.
*I like Halloween.
Three things I don't have in common with them:
*I don't have red hair.
*I've never murdered anyone.
*I don't have any sisters.
Favorite line:
Her first line, printed on quite a bit of Halloween merchandise:
"Oh, look. Another glorious morning. Makes me sick!"
Her curse just before being hanged:
"Fools! All of you! My ungodly book speaks to you! On All Hallows' Eve, when the moon is round, a virgin will summon us from under the ground! (laughs) We shall be back! And the lives of all the children shall be mine!"
When she sees a school for the first time, judging by its appearance and its smell of children:
"It is a prison for children!"
About Dani calling her "ugly":
"She really hurt my feelings... She doesn't even know me! You know, I always wanted a child, and now I think I'll have one... on toast!"
When she brings Billy Butcherson back as a zombie:
"Unfaithful lover, long since dead, deep asleep in thy wormy bed! Wiggle thy toes! Open thine eyes! Twist thy fingers toward the skies! Life is sweet, be not shy! On thy feet! So sayeth I!"
In response to being told "Go to hell!":
"Oh! I've been there, thank you. I found it quite lovely."
And as a bonus, from the Hocus Pocus Villains Spelltacular show at Walt Disney World, when she laments that she and her sisters don't have any friends, and Sarah says "We're friends":
"No, we're sisters. I have to like you."
brOTP: Her sisters Mary and Sarah, even if she does treat them shabbily most of the time.
OTP: None, unless there's a man out there who wants to be poisoned and have his mouth sewn shut if he makes one wrong move.
nOTP: Thackery Binx, Max Dennison, or Billy Butcherson.
Random headcanon: During the 300 years she and her sisters spent in hell after their execution, she met several of the classic Disney villains (who of course were killed in their own stories), like Maleficent, the Evil Queen, Ursula, Gaston, Scar, and Frollo. Her interactions with them were very interesting.
Unpopular opinion: I'll say the same thing I did about her sisters. I wish the Boo to You Halloween Parade at Walt Disney World had only dressed Minnie Mouse as Winifred for the 30th anniversary of Hocus Pocus in 2023. Ditto for Clarabelle Cow as Mary and Daisy Duck as Sarah. I wish they hadn't kept it for this year's parade too. Hocus Pocus is really a movie for middle schoolers and older, not for the little kids Minnie and friends appeal to the most. The costume does look cute on Minnie, but still.
Song I associate with them: What else?

at  some  point  he  got  wrapped  up  in  the  internet  world  ,  making  appearances  in  some  of  the  biggest  youtubers  videos  and  making  guest  appearances  on  podcaster  where  he  quickly  became  a  favorite  .  his  lack  of  a  filter  and  charming  smile  that  always  followed  outlandish  quotes  capitulated  him  into  a  space  acting  simply  could  never  .  it  wasn't  long  before  he  realized  guest  appearances  weren't  needed  any  more  and  he  started  up  his  own  podcast  ,  why  stop  now  .  within  two  years  he  was  picked  up  by  spotify  who  offered  him  the  biggest  deal  to  date  .

Third Person POV
‘It’s all just a bunch of Hocus Pocus.’
Salem, Massachusetts has always been known for its witchcraft allegations as well as for how they handled each case, calling them the Salem Witch Trials. Three centuries ago, hundreds of people were accused, but only a mere thirty were found guilty. Nineteen were hanged due to the false accusations placed upon them, while others died in jail or were pressed to death.  
Thackery Binx found his sister being whisked away by three actual witches, The Sanderson sisters, who needed her for a spell to stay young and beautiful. The same night his sister had passed away, and his disappearance, the three witches were hanged for their witchcraft, but vowed they’d be back. 
Now every Halloween, the entire town goes all out for the festivities. Casey Blackstone has lived in Salem all her life and loves the holiday. It’s the one time of year she can eat as much candy as she wants and no one will bat an eye, well except for her dentist father. She also loves wearing costumes, being someone else besides herself for a night.
Since her family, as well as her friend Allison’s, thinks they are too old to be trick or treating, they are forced to give out candy this year while Allison’s family has a party. Her parents wanted to go to the party at Town Hall but they got sick so they’re staying home. Her costume is already at the Watt’s house, waiting to be put on later that night. 
Sighing to herself as she fixes her hair in the mirror, Casey turns to her black cat that is sitting on her bed watching her.
Tumblr media
Due to the holiday and the history they are taught every year, she felt there was only one name fitting for a black cat such as the one she found almost eleven years ago.
“What do you think of today’s outfit, Binx?” She throws her hands out, showing off her purple low-cut shirt as well as her slightly ripped jeans.
Binx meows his response before stepping toward her to rub his face against her hip, causing his collar to clink against the bell she forces him to wear. 
“I like it too.” She smiles and pets his head as she kneels down next to her bed. “Alright, I got to go to school. Remember, don’t bring mice into the house. If you’re going to bring female cats home, make sure it’s not in my room. I’ll see you tomorrow. You’re my best friend and I love you.”
She kisses the top of his head before picking up her bookbag and walking out of the room, not noticing him climbing out of her window as soon as she closes her door a smidge. She wasn’t lying. Her cat was her best friend and she makes sure to tell him everyday, despite him probably not knowing what the hell she’s saying. 
She had found him in her backyard one day, eating a mouse with no collar. It was clear that he belonged to no one, that he was on his own. She knew she had to take him in, after asking her parents of course. Ever since, she’s been feeding him, playing with him and letting him sleep on her bed, cuddled up next to her. 
She even lets him roam free, knowing he’ll come right back home. He’s literally her best friend and she wouldn’t trade him for the world, even if he leaves her surprises on the back porch. After slipping on her shoes and red jacket, she walks out the front door, ready to take on the day.
Tumblr media
Max Dennison has only been in town for about a week and a half and he already hates it. He misses the sunny days of California. He misses his friends. Hell, he misses his old house. To him, Salem, Massachusetts is a horrible place to live. It’s gloomy, rainy and far too obsessed with this witchy, Halloween stuff.
It was never his favorite holiday to begin with so moving to a town that is all for it irritates him. He can’t wait to move once he turns eighteen next year. The only thing good about this town is this one girl. On Max’s first day of school earlier this week, he caught sight of a beautiful girl. Blonde hair. These crystal blue eyes that remind him of the ocean back home. 
He’s never even spoken a word to her and he’s already hooked. He rubs his eyes as he walks to his final class of the day. History. The third class he has with the girl he has his eyes on. Seeing her will make this boring class worth it. He sits down in his assigned seat and pulls out his notebook, unsure of what they will be learning today. 
As he opens his notebook, he glances up at a soft giggle that enters his ears. There she is. The purple shirt she’s wearing really brings out her eyes, and he’s really trying hard not to look down a smidge. As she walks by him, he quickly looks down at his notebook, not wanting to be caught watching her.
 Since she sits in the row next to him, but one seat behind, he can easily get caught by the teacher, or hell, another student! Maybe today, he’ll finally talk to her…yeah, probably not going to happen. As class starts, their teacher, Miss Olin who is dressed as a witch, begins telling the legend of the Sanderson Sisters. 
The very legend that Casey got her cat's name from. Even though she knows every bit of the legend, she’s listening closely, hoping to hear something different but she never does. Max, however, is doodling in his notebook, not believing one ounce of the story. 
“Poor Thackery Binx. Neither his father, his mother, nor anyone else ever knew what became of him…those 300 years ago.” Miss Olin says, walking up an aisle before stopping in front of the classroom. “And so the Sanderson Sisters were hanged by the Salem townsfolk. Now, there are those who say that on Halloween night…a black cat still guards the old Sanderson house, warning off any who might make the witches…come back to life!”
She then throws a black ribbon attached to her hand at a girl’s face causing the teenage girl to scream in fright. The rest of the students in the room, besides Max, laugh at her scream. Max shakes his head in disbelief as he doodles.
“Give me a break.” He mumbles, moving his pen along the letters he drew.
“Aha, we seem to have a skeptic in our midst.” Miss Olin raises an eyebrow as she steps toward his desk. “Mr. Dennison, would you care to share your California, laid-back, tie-dyed point of view?”
The room erupted into laughter again at her sarcasm. He looks up at her after glancing around the room and smirks, gaining some courage. 
“Okay. Granted that, uh, you guys here in Salem are all into these, uh, black cats and witches and stuff…”
Miss Olin cuts him off with a scoff while the rest of the room let him know that his words were unneeded by their tones of displeasure. 
“Stuff?”
“Fine. But everyone here knows that Halloween was invented by the candy companies. It’s a conspiracy.” He finishes, smirking at his teacher. 
 A voice speaks up, capturing Max’s attention. He turns toward the voice and his cheeks redden a bit at who is talking. It’s her…
“It just so happens that Halloween is based on the ancient feast called All Hallows Eve. It’s the one night of the year where the spirits of the dead can return to earth.” She explains, giving the teenager her own smirk. 
The class breaks out into cheers and claps at her comment, happy to prove the new kid wrong with his non-beliefs and crappy theories. He turns back to his notebook and flips to a new paper, quickly jotting something down, a small smile on his face as he keeps his courage. 
“Well said, Casey.” Miss Olin says, smiling widely at her, clapping herself.
She grins to herself and high fives Allison who is sitting right behind the non-believer. Max stands up from his chair as his classmates talk around him. He takes a few steps toward her desk, capturing her attention. 
“Well, in case Jimi Hendrix shows up tonight, here’s my number.” He says, holding out the piece of paper.
Tumblr media
She raises an eyebrow, ignoring her classmates groans, and takes the single sheet before opening it up. ‘Max Dennison 555-9142’ it reads. The bell rings and Casey stands up from her chair, giving the boy a small smirk as she puts the number in her pocket. He smiles at her actions before watching her walk away.
“Max.” A boy that sat behind her captures his attention. “Fat chance.”
The new kid just rolls his eyes and gathers his stuff up, ready to go home. Casey quickly stops at her locker, making sure to grab her jacket while sticking all her books in the metal container. Since Halloween is such a big holiday in Salem, the school doesn’t give out homework if it lands on a weekend such as today. 
As she puts her notebook away, she notices a pen sitting on the top shelf. Smirking to herself, she pulls out Max’s number and rips the paper, jotting something down on one half. Shoving one piece into her jeans pocket and the other, along with the pen, into her jacket pocket, she hangs her bookbag on the hook and closes the door. 
Casey then jogs out to the front doors, meeting up with Allison as she glances around the parking lot. 
“So did he really give you his number?” Allison asks, fixing her bag that rests on her shoulder as they walk down the sidewalk. 
“He did.” She nods, smiling softly to herself as she plays with the paper in her jacket pocket.
“And are you going to call him?” Her friend raises an eyebrow.
“If I do, it won't be till…”
“Casey!” 
The blonde turns around and sees the new kid on his bike, riding toward her. She looks at her best friend and gestures down the road.
“I’ll catch up.”
Allison raises an eyebrow at the brunette haired boy before nodding at her friend. Casey turns back around and watches as Max stops his bike beside her, panting very softly as he straddles his seat. 
“Hi.” She says, smiling slightly at him. 
“Hi. Look, uhh, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to embarrass you in class.” He says, regretting his actions. 
He thought about it on his way to his bike. He shouldn’t have done that. What if she hates him now? What if she never wants to see him again? He practically humiliated her in front of their entire class. 
“You didn’t.” She shrugs, not caring one bit about the awkward exchange that happened. 
If anything, she’s the one that embarrassed him in front of the entire class by proving him wrong. He pauses for a moment, unsure of what to say so he lets go of his handlebars and holds his hand out to her. 
“My name is Max Dennison.” He says, despite having practically told her through his note.
“Yeah, I know.” She says, shaking his hand. “You just moved here, huh?”
“Yeah, last week.” He says, not wanting to think about how soft her hands were compared to his. 
“Must be a big change for you.” She says, letting go of his hand to put her own back into her jacket pocket. 
“Yeah, that’s for sure.” He says, scoffing slightly, gripping his handlebars again.
“You don’t like it here?” She raises an eyebrow.
“Oh, the leaves are great…” He says, gesturing around them. “But - I - I don’t know. Just all this Halloween shit.”
“You don’t believe in it?” She asks, pushing her hip out slightly as she rests most of her body weight on one leg, not caring about his language.
“What? Do you mean, like The Sanderson Sisters?” He shakes his head with a light chuckle escaping his lips. “No way.”
“Not even on Halloween?” She asks, biting her lip softly, trying to hide her amusement.
“Especially not on Halloween.” He says, putting emphasis on the beginning of his sentence with a smile.
Tumblr media
Casey licks the inside of her cheek before reaching into her pocket. Holding up two fingers with a piece of paper sitting between them, she gently pulls Max’s left hand off his handlebars. He opens his hand, watching her movements, praying that his cheeks aren’t turning red at her actions. She presses the piece of paper into his hand, smiling as she looks up at him as she closes his hand around it. 
“Trick or treat.”
Letting his hand go, she turns around and starts walking toward where Allison is waiting, talking to another friend of theirs. Max’s eyes watch her before looking down at the folded paper. His heart is pounding in his chest as he moves to open the paper.
“Max!” He hears her call out for him, causing his head to snap up. “Call me Cas.”
Not knowing what to say, he nods at her words, watching her walk away again. This time, she turns around and puts up her red hood, making it look like she was wearing a witch’s pointed hat. He bites his lip and looks back down at the piece of paper. Swallowing the small amount of spit in his mouth, he unfolds the paper. 
The first thing that caught his eye was that the top half was ripped off, meaning…she kept his number! He smiles softly before looking at the words written. ‘Casey Blackstone. 555-????. No tricks, Max. Earn your treat.’ with a smiley face. The smile drops from his face for a moment before it shows up again. 
She didn’t give him her full number, but by the way she wrote this note, she might plan on giving it to him later! Hell, if she did keep his number, is she going to call him later? He looks back up toward the direction his blonde crush was walking to see her in the distance, walking with her friend. He bites the inside of his lip before putting the note into his pocket.
“What was that about?” Allison asks, glancing over her shoulder to see Max pedaling away on his bike.
“Oh, nothing.” Casey grins as she walks. “Just apologizing for embarrassing me in class.”
“Oh!” She nods before squealing softly. “Anyway! My mom said your costume will go great with ours.”
“Do I really have to be a peasant while your whole family, as well as their friends, are wearing  Masquerade outfits?” She groans slightly.
“She said there were only two dresses so she had to get you something else.” Allison says, shrugging.
“I knew I should have gotten the bunny costume when I had the chance.” Casey mumbles, walking down the road.
Tumblr media
Max is ready to go back home to California. Today has been one of the worst days of his entire life. First, he embarrasses his crush in class. She said he didn’t, but he knows he did. Then he was stopped at the graveyard by two wanna-be rapper bullies, Jay and Ernie. Sorry, Ice - not Ernie. Lastly, they took his brand new shoes! 
His shoes! What jerks take someone else’s shoes? He had to pedal all the way back home in just his socks. It was so humiliating. He parks his bike next to the house and practically stomps up the stairs to the back door. Slamming the screen door open, he opens the wooden door that leads to the kitchen to see his mom and dad putting away items from their move. 
“Hey, Max!” His mom says, smiling at him. “Hey, how was school?”
“It fucking sucked.” He says, leaving the door open as he makes his way through the room. 
“Hey, hey, hey, watch your language.” His dad says, standing up from the floor.
He ignores him and starts walking up the stairs that lead to the bedrooms. 
“I can’t believe you made me move here!” He calls down before walking to his door. 
He slams his head against the wood, next to his name plate that he put there, causing his hat to bunch up. He sighs and smacks the door with the side of his fist. Taking a second to himself, he opens the door and throws his book bag onto the floor near to his drum set. He rips his hat off his head and throws it against the stairs in his room that leads to the window seat above. 
He shakes off his jacket as he walks and tosses it to the ground behind him. Trying to calm himself down, he sighs deeply as he looks out the window before glancing down at the fish tank he has beside his bed. He picks up their container of food.
“Hey, guys.” He says, leaning down to sprinkle some into the water. 
He puts the flakes down before sitting on his bed, laying back into the pillows. There was one good thing about today, though. She talked to him! He rolls away from his fish tank and grabs one of his extra pillows, cuddling it to his chest. He grins to himself as he thinks about her. Her voice. Her hair. Her smile…
“Oh, Cas.” He mumbles, smiling as he closes his eyes, imaging her right beside him. “You’re so soft. I just wanna hug…”
His closet doors slam open as a child's voice is heard.
“Boo!”
He jumps slightly, looking over his shoulder as he lets his pillow go. 
“Dani!” He snaps at his little sister who was hiding in his room. 
She laughs and squeals in victory as she claps, knowing she scared him. She runs toward him, still laughing and jumps over him to lay down. He sits up, raising an eyebrow at her as all his anger from the day comes back. 
“I scared you, I scared you!” She leans up so she’s close to his face. “Ha-ha! Ha-ha! Ha!”
He shakes his head but before he can speak, she lays back and throws her arms out, a smile still on her face.
Tumblr media
“I’m Cas! Cas! Kiss me, I’m Cas!”
Embarrassed that his sister caught him daydreaming about his crush, he stands up and looks at her. 
“Mom and dad told you to stay out of my room!”
“Don’t be such a crab.” She says, standing up on his mattress before jumping up and down. “Guess what. You’re taking me trick-or-treating.”
He sighs and shakes his head. “Not this year, Dani.”
“Mom said you have to.” Dani says, jumping off his bed, landing on her feet beside him. 
“Well, she can take you.” He says, turning to walk away. 
She grabs him by his sleeve and pulls him back.
“She and dad are going to a party at Town Hall.”
“Well, you’re eight! Go by yourself.” He says, pulling his shirt from her hand and walking to his drum set. 
He sits down as he grabs his sticks and immediately begins to play a beat, ignoring his sister as he closes his eyes. She sighs with a determined look on her face and walks over to him. 
“No way! This is my first time! I’ll get lost! Besides, it’s a full moon outside! The weirdos are out!” Noticing he isn’t backing down, Dani walks around the drum set to wrap her arms around her older brother’s shoulders forcing him to stop playing. “Come on, Max. Couldn’t you forget about being a cool teenager just for one night? Please…Come on. We used to have so much fun together trick-or-treating. Remember? It’ll be like old times.”
He shrugs her off and shakes his head. If he was going to willingly take her, that just ruined her chances.
“No. The old days are dead.” He says, beginning to play the same beat again. 
Dani puts her hands on her hips and glares at him. 
“It doesn’t matter what you say. You’re taking me!”
He instantly stops and looks at her, the same glare on his own face. 
“Wanna bet?”
He drops his sticks onto the Floor Tom drum and jumps up from his seat. He runs up the small flight of stairs, skipping a few steps and sits at the top, near the window seat, crossing his arms on his knees. His little sister stomps toward the stairs before putting her hands on her hips again. 
“MOM!!!!” She screams loudly.

[ emilia jones, cis woman, she/her. ] ✧・゚ is that [ WHITNEY DENNISON ] who just stumbled into town? rumour has it that they’re the [ TWENTY ] year old child of [ MAX AND ALLISON ] from [ HOCUS POCUS ]. i’ve also heard that they’re [ ORGANIZED ] but [ APATHETIC ] and have [ 1 ] sibling. i could almost swear i heard [ BETTY - TAYLOR SWIFT ] playing when they appeared.
full name: whitney claire dennison
nickname(s): whit
age: 20
sexuality: homosexual
zodiac sign: aquarius - february 9th
bio:
much like most other people in town, whitney has been fascinated with salem witches from a very young age.  of course, it doesn’t hurt that her parents and aunt defeated the sanderson sisters in the 90′s.  sure, no one ever believes her when she tells that story, but it’s something that her family is very proud of.  it also caused max and allison to be constantly cautious, especially around halloween, and they did everything they could to make sure that whitney stayed as far away from dangerous places as possible.
of course, whitney being whitney, she was very much attracted to said dangerous places.  she loved exploring abandoned and creepy places all year, but especially on halloween.  she started off doing it alone, but eventually her cousins and sibling started tagging along, whether they actually wanted to explore or just wanted to make sure the rest of them didn’t get into too much trouble.  she wouldn’t dare tell her parents, or even her aunt dani, so for right now it’s her little secret
she may be max and allison’s daughter, but she gets her attitude from her aunt.  there have been many occasions where she really should have kept her mouth shut, but she was never one to hold her tongue. 
wanted connections:
sibling: her older sibling pls! i kind of picture them being the voice of reason to whitney’s impulsivity, so they balance each other out well.
cousins: the kids of dani! i’d imagine the dennison clan is pretty close, so it’d be cool to have those relationships around!
friends/enemies/other general connections: whitney’s pretty easygoing and loves making friends, but her mouth has given her her fair share of enemies too haha

the holiday season is in full swing right now. i know i have been awfully quiet these past few weeks, but i was busy getting everyone’s gifts ready. everyone knows that this time of year has been resorted to who gave the best gift and how many gifts were given, so don’t worry, i have a gift for everyone. 
the gift of truth. there is nothing more rewarding and giving than clarity.
it is no secret that our resident freeloader, phil deville has gotten himself in trouble with just about everyone he knows. everyone loves a good sleeping with the enemy story, but sleeping with your practical sister? i thought those old traditions died decades ago. my heart goes out to lil and chuckie; both of them seem to be losing their minds and the little gang of rugrats is falling apart. kimi, we knew you liked guys that were bad for you, but we never expected you to pick the weirdest and worst choice yet!
speaking of bad choices, our new resident slut, max dennison is making the worst ones. who knew a guy with no personality would be such a catch to the women of animania? it must be that new town smell. he claims he is head over heels about his ex, but has already fallen into the arms of resident vixen, daisy dubois. the best part is that her notorious ex charlie is too busy being a doting friend to our favorite ray of sun to even care or notice. we’re sure that has her all kinds of crazy, but not to worry; when her friend sarah isn’t too busy shoving her tongue down her ex’s throat, the infamous billy butcherson, they are normally seen together howling at the moon and plotting ways to torture the men of animania. oh no. was that supposed to be a secret?
kit charming is losing his touch. it seems our prince is cheating on his fiance with his mystery woman, who we all know is a certain maid around the charming estate and he probably thinks he will be able to follow his heart and live happily ever after; wrong! there is already rumors circulating that daddy is pissed and that he is going to find him a newer, richer, fiance as soon as this one is over with. who could this new woman be? stay tuned with  to find out! all i have to say is...shame on him. so much for princely.
things are as dysfunctional as ever in the house of hades. harold is too busy trying to win his ex back that he is neglecting his sons, especially poor paul. he is clearly spiraling onto the stiff stick of claude cogsworth to ease the neglect. harold is so blind to his ex’s darkening shadow that he can’t even see that she is sleeping with the resident skeleton man. she’s moved on, so it’s your turn too. while he is failing to take the hint, meg is failing to take the more obvious one. i don’t even have to bother linking the video of her french beau sucking the face of a familiar redhead, because it’s already all over the internet. between hooking up with her and our resident star, sharpay evans, he has made it more than clear that keeping his stiff rod in his pants is not something he can do. the only one who looks pathetic and weak at this point, is meg. it’s so sad seeing the former damsel in distress turning into that girlfriend. i never thought i would see such a strong woman become such a laughing stock so fast.
now, onto some good news! it is wendy darling’s birthday today, so naturally, i have an excellent gift to give her; evening the playing field. everyone thinks that tiara is one of the innocent players in this game, but she isn’t. in fact, while she has been pining over peter, she has also been sleeping with his best friend nibs as well. hope you like the gift, and may it bring you some clarity. it seems like tommy pickles is out of the game now too, since he has been spotted with a certain crimefighting redhead. anything is possible, right? i should warn you though, wendy.  the pacifica northwest has entered as a new player for peter’s heart, so better seal that deal quickly. can’t wait to see how rosie leads this friendship support meeting! maybe she can pine over another man not interested in her in the process. and michelle? being so blind to the fact that the lost boy she gets all giggly over is not into her is just...so michelle of her.
before i wrap this up, i would like to give a personal shout-out to willow vanderquack. congrats! nothing worthy to report and being the only person capable of figuring out who i am is lost on you entirely. i have to give you the flowers you deserve.
don’t worry. i have many more presents to give.
xoxo

RULES
Tumblr media
Oct. 1st: Hocus Pocus
After moving to Salem, Mass., teenager Max Dennison (Omri Katz) explores an abandoned house with his sister Dani (Thora Birch) and their new friend, Allison (Vinessa Shaw). After dismissing a story Allison tells as superstitious, Max accidentally frees a coven of evil witches (Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, Kathy Najimy) who used to live in the house. Now, with the help of a magical cat, the kids must steal the witches' book of spells to stop them from becoming immortal.
Oct. 2nd: The Addams Family
When a man (Christopher Lloyd) claiming to be Fester, the missing brother of Gomez Addams (Raul Julia), arrives at the Addams' home, the family is thrilled. However, Morticia (Anjelica Huston) begins to suspect the man is a fraud, since he cannot recall details of Fester's life. With the help of lawyer Tully Alford (Dan Hedaya), Fester manages to get the Addams clan evicted from their home. Gomez realizes the two men are conspiring to swindle the Addams fortune and that he must challenge Fester.
Oct 3rd: Halloween
On a cold Halloween night in 1963, six year old Michael Myers brutally murdered his 17-year-old sister, Judith. He was sentenced and locked away for 15 years. But on October 30, 1978, while being transferred for a court date, a 21-year-old Michael Myers steals a car and escapes Smith's Grove. He returns to his quiet hometown of Haddonfield, Illinois, where he looks for his next victims.
Oct. 4th: The Nightmare Before Christmas
The film follows the misadventures of Jack Skellington, Halloweentown's beloved pumpkin king, who has become bored with the same annual routine of frightening people in the "real world." When Jack accidentally stumbles on Christmastown, all bright colors and warm spirits, he gets a new lease on life -- he plots to bring Christmas under his control by kidnapping Santa Claus and taking over the role. But Jack soon discovers even the best-laid plans of mice and skeleton men can go seriously awry.
Oct. 5th: Edward Scissorhands
A scientist (Vincent Price) builds an animated human being -- the gentle Edward (Johnny Depp). The scientist dies before he can finish assembling Edward, though, leaving the young man with a freakish appearance accentuated by the scissor blades he has instead of hands. Loving suburban saleswoman Peg (Dianne Wiest) discovers Edward and takes him home, where he falls for Peg's teen daughter (Winona Ryder). However, despite his kindness and artistic talent, Edward's hands make him an outcast.
Oct. 6th: Beetlejuice
After Barbara (Geena Davis) and Adam Maitland (Alec Baldwin) die in a car accident, they find themselves stuck haunting their country residence, unable to leave the house. When the unbearable Deetzes (Catherine O'Hara, Jeffrey Jones) and teen daughter Lydia (Winona Ryder) buy the home, the Maitlands attempt to scare them away without success. Their efforts attract Beetlejuice (Michael Keaton), a rambunctious spirit whose "help" quickly becomes dangerous for the Maitlands and innocent Lydia.
Oct. 7th: The Lost Boys
Teenage brothers Michael (Jason Patric) and Sam (Corey Haim) move with their mother (Dianne Wiest) to a small town in northern California. While the younger Sam meets a pair of kindred spirits in geeky comic-book nerds Edward (Corey Feldman) and Alan (Jamison Newlander), the angst-ridden Michael soon falls for Star (Jami Gertz) -- who turns out to be in thrall to David (Kiefer Sutherland), leader of a local gang of vampires. Sam and his new friends must save Michael and Star from the undead.
Oct. 8th: Sweeny Todd
Evil Judge Turpin (Alan Rickman) lusts for the beautiful wife of a London barber (Johnny Depp) and transports him to Australia for a crime he did not commit. Returning after 15 years and calling himself Sweeney Todd, the now-mad man vows revenge, applying his razor to unlucky customers and shuttling the bodies down to Mrs. Lovett (Helena Bonham Carter), who uses them in her meat-pie shop. Though many fall to his blade, he will not be satisfied until he slits Turpin's throat.
Oct. 9th: Sleepy Hollow
Set in 1799, "Sleepy Hollow" is based on Washington Irving's classic tale "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow." Faithful to the dreamy custom-bound world that Irving paints in his story, the film mixes horror, fantasy and romance and features an extraordinary cast of characters that dabble in the supernatural.
Oct. 10th: Psycho
Phoenix secretary Marion Crane (Janet Leigh), on the lam after stealing $40,000 from her employer in order to run away with her boyfriend, Sam Loomis (John Gavin), is overcome by exhaustion during a heavy rainstorm.

Oct. 11th: The Haunted Mansion
Workaholic real estate agent Jim Evers (Eddie Murphy) is accused by his wife, Sara (Marsha Thomason), of neglecting his son (Marc John Jefferies) and daughter (Aree Davis), so he takes the family on a vacation.

Oct. 12th: Practical Magic
Sally (Sandra Bullock) and Gillian Owens (Nicole Kidman), born into a magical family, have mostly avoided witchcraft themselves. But when Gillian's vicious boyfriend, Jimmy Angelov (Goran Visnjic), dies unexpectedly, the Owens sisters give themselves a crash course in hard magic. With policeman Gary Hallet (Aidan Quinn) growing suspicious, the girls struggle to resurrect Angelov -- and unwittingly inject his corpse with an evil spirit that threatens to end their family line.
Oct 13th: The Exorcist
One of the most profitable horror movies ever made, this tale of an exorcism is based loosely on actual events. When young Regan (Linda Blair) starts acting odd -- levitating, speaking in tongues -- her worried mother (Ellen Burstyn) seeks medical help, only to hit a dead end. A local priest (Jason Miller), however, thinks the girl may be seized by the devil. The priest makes a request to perform an exorcism, and the church sends in an expert (Max von Sydow) to help with the difficult job.
Oct. 14th: The Shining
Jack Torrance (Jack Nicholson) becomes winter caretaker at the isolated Overlook Hotel in Colorado, hoping to cure his writer's block. He settles in along with his wife, Wendy (Shelley Duvall), and his son, Danny (Danny Lloyd), who is plagued by psychic premonitions.

When specialist James Harvey (Bill Pullman) arrives to communicate with Casper and his fellow spirits, he brings along his teenage daughter, Kat (Christina Ricci).

Oct. 16th: A Nightmare on Elm Street
In Wes Craven's classic slasher film, several Midwestern teenagers fall prey to Freddy Krueger (Robert Englund), a disfigured midnight mangler who preys on the teenagers in their dreams -- which, in turn, kills them in reality. After investigating the phenomenon, Nancy (Heather Langenkamp) begins to suspect that a dark secret kept by her and her friends' parents may be the key to unraveling the mystery, but can Nancy and her boyfriend Glen (Johnny Depp) solve the puzzle before it's too late?
Oct. 17th: Ghostbusters
After the members of a team of scientists (Harold Ramis, Dan Aykroyd, Bill Murray) lose their cushy positions at a university in New York City, they decide to become "ghostbusters" to wage a high-tech battle with the supernatural for money. They stumble upon a gateway to another dimension, a doorway that will release evil upon the city. The Ghostbusters must now save New York from complete destruction.
Oct. 18th: The Mummy
The Mummy is a rousing, suspenseful and horrifying epic about an expedition of treasure-seeking explorers in the Sahara Desert in 1925.

Invited to the prom by the empathetic Tommy Ross (William Katt), Carrie tries to let her guard down, but things eventually take a dark and violent turn.
Oct. 20th: Scream
Wes Craven re-invented and revitalised the slasher-horror genre with this modern horror classic, which manages to be funny, clever and scary, as a fright-masked knife maniac stalks high-school students in middle-class suburbia. Craven is happy to provide both tension and self-parody as the body count mounts - but the victims aren't always the ones you'd expect.
Oct. 21st: Rosemary’s Baby
A young wife comes to believe that her offspring is not of this world. Waifish Rosemary Woodhouse (Mia Farrow) and her struggling actor husband Guy (John Cassavetes) move to a New York City apartment building with an ominous reputation and odd neighbors Roman and Minnie Castavet (Sidney Blackmer, Ruth Gordon).

❝ drop dead, moron. ❞
( odeya rush, she/her, 20, hocus pocus ) – i think i saw DANI DENNISON in town today. they seemed like they DID already know about havenfall, was it this new magic that brought HER here or have they been around? from what i know SHE IS a bit OBSTINATE, but can also be FEARLESS. do you think they remember BINX AND EMILY’S GHOSTS WALKING AWAY IN THE MORNING? i know that they are ATTENDING THE LOCAL COMMUNITY COLLEGE & STAFF AT ON FILM in town now. well, i guess we’ll find out when we see them at the winter’s park ampitheatre!
name: danielle dennison
nickname(s): dani
age: twenty
birthdate / zodiac: may 12 / taurus 
gender / pronouns: female / she & her
occupation: staff at on film 
education: attending community college, film major.
fandom: hocus pocus
family members: dave & jenny dennison ( parents ), max dennison ( older brother )
sexual orientation: bisexual
more information: here 
and the story goes... 
dani was born and raised, for the first eight years of her life at least, in california. and she loved it there. but being young, she was able to bounce back with a move like that.
in fact, she loved the town that they moved to. knowing all of the spooky history for the eight year old just made it even more fun for her, especially because she was so interested in it all.
even if it scared her, which she’d never have admitted out loud.
dani had her older brother max, who she loved to annoy more than anything else. the two of them were always butting heads, but she loved him more than anything too.
on that first halloween in salem, they went trick or treating around the new town and everything seemed like it was going to be fine. and then the two dennison siblings along with max’s crush allison watts went off to the old sanderson house.
dani was the first to say that she was afraid of it, as she had heard all the stories. but she wasn’t about to just run off on her own in a new city and on halloween of all times. she made her brother make a promise to her and figured it would all work out.
and it might have. if max had believed in the tales, if he hadn’t lit the black flame candle. and set them off on an adventure ( a crazy one ) that she never thought possible.
well, she was eight at the time. she kind of thought anything might be possible. but looking back on it she really didn’t think that anything like this was entirely possible at all.
the group got into a lot of trouble, and their own parents didn’t believe them when they came forward about everything. but it happened. and they eventually moved on from it all.
dani still wished that binx the cat was alright, but she knew that he was in a better place. and in fact, it wound up being something that helped her. she convinced her parents to get her a cat shortly after all of everything happened.
after everything that happened, dani decided that she was going to be the best person she could be and focus on school and everything. though she did get into some trouble here and there with bits of information and things she learned about other local folk legends. she couldn’t stay away from town things.
she’s currently working at the movie theater here, and also attending school to study film.

What makes them laugh out loud?     Most everything. She’s easy to get laughing.
How do they display affection?     Soft touches, shutting up to listen to you.
How do they want to be seen by     others? A badass bitch who takes no shit, lol. Really, just someone worth     being around.
How do they see themselves? She     likes who she is for the most part. She had always believed she was     courageous, but the witches have flipped her view, unsure about what her pervasive     fear of them means.
How are they seen by others? I     think people see her as fun, wholesome, cute… she hates 2 out of 3 of     those descriptors though, because she feels like people don’t take her     seriously because of them.
Strongest character trait?     Courage
Weakest character trait? Selfish
How competitive are they? Not     really all that competitive
Do they make snap judgements or     take time to consider? Depends on the day.
How do they react to praise? She     has some sort of goofy response and a compliment back, shift the attention     off her.
How do they react to criticism?     It takes a moment, she doesn’t just accept it instantly, but she can     eventually come around to it.
What is their greatest fear?     Being unable to stop when something puts her family or Binx in danger.
What are their biggest secrets?     I don’t really think she has secrets. She usually is fairly open about     things. There are things she has yet to tell herself… but mostly she says what     she thinks and feels.
What is their philosophy of     life? The beauty of life is in the people you share it with. Choose wisely     and be a person that can make their life beautiful as well.
When was the last time they     cried? Probably at multiple points while Binx was missing.
What haunts them? She said, ‘idk     ghosts?’
What will they stand up for? You,     your dog, your dog’s cousin… she is willing to fight when someone needs     it.
Who do they quote? Celebrities     probably.
What is their sinful little     habit? ‘It should be a sin to be this awesome’
What sense do they most rely     on? Hearing
How do they treat people better     than them? She likes to think that she treats everyone the same, but she     is easily awed by people she thinks are great.
How do they treat people worse     than them? Unless you move against her, she tries to treat you with     respect.
What quality do they most value     in a friend? Just love her.
What do they consider an overrated     virtue? Obeying rules.
If they could change one thing     about themselves, what would it be? She would be less afraid of the     witches.
What is their obsession? All     things witches. She thinks about witches, dreams about witches, reads     about witches. She is unsure where the lines between terror, fascination,     and envy are.
What are their pet peeves? When     people don’t listen to her, especially her brother.
FRIENDS AND FAMILY
Is their family big or small?     Who does it consist of? Just her, her mom and dad, and brother.
What is their perception of     family? She loves her family and depends on them, but she firmly believes     that that same kind of family can be found in other places. It’s not all about     blood.
Describe their best friend.     Binx is certainly the yin to her yang sometimes. He’s deep and contemplative,     made up by centuries of experiences and layers that she really is only     starting to peel back. She feels their connection goes deeper than that of     friends, though. This is her person, her soul mate in life. Her other     bestie is Fran. Their immortality has allowed her to create a friend in them     that you normally might not see with their vast age difference.
Describe their other friends.     Dani’s type is apparently immortal hot men, and she is not complaining.     She surrounds herself with them. Outside of that, when it comes to friends     her own age, it’s more of a mix of personalities. She’s sweet, but mischievous,     which allows her to be friends with people like Logan and Aurora and     remain completely herself. She likes having a friend for all occasions.
Describe their acquaintances.     Dani probably has acquaintances, but she’s quick to call you her friend,     regardless of how the other person might see it.
Do they have any pets? She     needs a new cat, preferably a regular one this time.
PAST AND FUTURE
What was your character like as     a baby? As a child? I think her personality has been fairly steady     throughout her life. She’s always been relatively upbeat and a     troublemaker.
Did they grow up rich or poor?     Middle class.
Did they grow up nurtured or     neglected? Nurtured.
What is their greatest     achievement? I don’t know if she has one yet. In writing her, I like to     take the mentality that until the moment the witches were released, her     life was very ordinary. She wasn’t rich, or poor, or had anything big and     dramatic happen to her. All her greatest achievements as well are yet to     come.
What was their first kiss like?     It was fine. Nothing to write home about.
What are their ambitions? She     currently is really into learning about magic and really getting to a     place of understanding of it. Partly she thinks it will help her fight     against the witches, but beneath that, she hopes understanding magic will     make it less frightening.
What advice would they give     their younger self? “It’s going to be scary but it’s going to be worth it.     Just be brave.”
What smells remind them of     their childhood? Salt air
What was their childhood     ambition? To be Doctor Dolittle
Did they have an imaginary     childhood friend? Oh, for sure. His name was also Max, like her brother,     was the same age, but was always there to play with her.
When was the last time they     were crushed with disappointment? When she thought Binx had left her.
What past act are they most     ashamed of? Unleashing the witches onto the world. She wouldn’t take it     back, because it brought so much to her life, but she is aware of the     danger of it. It’s a complicated feeling that she struggles to navigate.
LOVE
Do they believe in love at     first sight? I think she does in the way that most young people have an     impractical idea of what love is, but she would say that she doesn’t     believe in love at first sight though.
Are they in a relationship? Not     at the moment.
How do they behave in a     relationship? She’s all about the fun aspects of relationships. She loves     just goofing off with the person, is constantly looking for excuses to be     around them, trying to make them laugh and have fun with her.
When did you character last     have sex? A couple years ago.
What sort of sex do they have? The     inexperienced kind.
Has your character ever been in     love? Nope
Have they ever had their heart     broken? … probably, but only in like, having a deep crush on a guy who     doesn’t like her back and how that feels really serious and     earth-shattering in that moment when you’re young.
CONFLICT
How do they respond to a     threat? She tells her army of hot immortal men… lol, she actually can get     a little mouthy when she’s in danger. It’s her defense mechanism.
Are they most likely to fight     with their fists or their tongue? Tongue, but she’s not unwilling to fight     with her fists. She never has, but she could.
What is your character’s     kryptonite? If someone she loves is in danger, she would probably give the     person whatever they wanted.
If your character could only     save one thing from their burning house, what would it be? Her cat.
How do they perceive strangers?     She used to be very open with strangers, and to an extent, she still is.     She’ll tell you her life story if you get her going. It doesn’t mean she     is as willing to trust people as she used to be with the important things.
What is their choice of weapon?     Flamethrower, if she’s being given the option. Who would pick anything     else?
What living person do they most     despise? The witches.
Have they ever been bullied or     teased? Nothing serious, I doubt.
Where do they go when they’re     angry? Dani is very much a pillow screamer. Her pillow, your pillow, if     she gets pissed, no pillow is safe from being screamed into.
Who are their enemies and why?     The witches. They might give a damn about Dani but she feels its her duty     to keep people safe from them. She doesn’t know how to do that yet, but     she’s learning. She’s ready to make them give a damn.
WORK, EDUCATION AND HOBBIES
What is their current job? Student.
What are some of their past     jobs? She once wore an awful hat and sold corndogs on a pier before they     moved here.
What are their hobbies? She     loves a good adventure as much as she loves digging into Howl’s collection     of magic materials.

What is in their fridge?     Leftover pizza, bottles of water, a thing of whiskey hidden behind some Cokes.
What is on their bedside table?     Alarm clock, phone charger, lamp

What is in their purse or     wallet? Wallet, phone, some treats for when Binx is in cat form, and also     candy for both of them when he isn’t
What is in their pockets? Keys
SPIRITUALITY
Do they believe in the     afterlife? She would have said no before now, but she’s at this point     where she really doesn’t know what to believe about anything. She’s     searching for the answers to these questions that will help the world make     sense to her again.
What are their religious views?     Searching.
What do they think heaven is?     If there is a heaven, it is probably pretty close to the Christian version     – but she would also tell you she really doesn’t know what other people     believe besides so she might not be the best to ask.
What do they think hell is?     Fire.
Are they superstitious? I think     she’s probably fairly superstitious at this point in her life. If magic is     real, then all bets are off on what else is or is not.
What would they like to be     reincarnated as? Something cool, like a falcon.
How would they like to die? Quick     and painless, please.
What is your character’s spirit     animal? Probably a chipmunk or something along those lines.
What is their zodiac sign?     Cancer
VALUES
What do they think is the worst     thing that can be done to a person? Abandonment
What is their view of     ‘freedom’? I highly doubt she’s given this much thought. Just being free to     do what you want.
When did they last lie? Maybe a     couple days ago… little white lies, nothing serious.
What’s their view of lying? If     something is serious, it is best not to.
When did they last make a     promise? Earlier today? She throws promises around like softballs.
Did they keep or break their     last promise? Keep. She always tries to keep them.
DAILY LIFE
What are their eating habits? I     mean, probably not great. She’s a college student, so a lot of Ramen and     pizza.

If they could save one person,     who would it be? Binx or a member of her family
If they could call one person     for help, who would it be? Howl seems the most capable
What is their perception of     redemption? Everyone is capable of redemption, but she’s aware that giving     people that second chance is easier said than done.
What would they do if they won     the lottery? Put it all in a room and then roll around in it.

What fairytale do they hate?     Snow White
Do they believe in happy     endings? She believes some people get them and hopes that she’s one of the     lucky ones that does.
What is their idea of perfect     happiness? She’s sitting in a room, surrounded by the people she loves,     all laughing, all talking, all enjoying each other.

Hocus Pocus & The All New Sequel by A.W. Jantha
"Winifred threw her hands up. 'Why, why, why was I cursed with such idiot sisters?' she demanded. Sarah did a little twirl. 'Just lucky, I guess.'"
Year Read: 2020
Rating: 3/5
About: It's Halloween in Salem, Massachusetts, and Poppy Dennison couldn't be less thrilled that her mom is throwing a Halloween party. She's never believed the story of how her parents accidentally raised the three Sanderson witches from the dead on Halloween twenty-five years ago, so when her friends decide to bail on the party and visit the old Sanderson house, she's eager to go along with it. It's just a bunch of Hocus Pocus, right? Wrong. The witches are back, and Poppy will have to race the clock to save her family and all of Salem. Trigger warnings: child death, mild body horror (if you find being turned into a domestic animal horrifying), violence, bullying, threats.
Thoughts: For all my love of horror movies, Hocus Pocus is actually my favorite Halloween movie, and I usually watch it at least twice every Halloween season. It's goofy, cheesy, and heartfelt but with surprisingly good dialogue and all the witchy Halloween spirit I could ask for. (I may have had a crush on Billy Butcherson when I was a kid, until I grew up and realized "sporting with" meant he cheated on Winifred with her sister. What an undead jerk.) I don't read a lot of film novelizations, but it's hard to imagine a better one than this. It's utterly faithful to the original material and was clearly written by someone who loves it, and much of the dialogue and all of the plot come straight from the film--as it should be. Of course, if you memorized the film like I did, you don't need to read it, but it's a fun, hundred-page diversion of a story I already love. It's nicely paced, moving back and forth between Max and Dani's story and the witches' (instead of covering theirs in the opening scenes), and I had fun picking out an occasional clue about what was coming next.
The sequel is all new, but I'm hoping that the second film will tell a similar story because there's a lot to like about it. First and foremost, I like knowing that Max and Allison lived happily ever after together (though I was a little surprised to find Max still willing to live in Salem). Their daughter Poppy, her best friend Travis, and her love interest Isabella are better developed thanks to the benefit of exposition, and I liked all of them. They're wholesome, realistic teenagers who do dumb things to impress each other, and they work hard to right their mistakes and, in some small instances, the mistakes of their parents. I enjoyed Katie's character arc of reformed bully as well, and she probably has the best development in the book. I was also surprised to find a cute wlw relationship in it, since that's usually a bigger selling point.
Maybe it was because the first novel set a precedent, but the pacing isn't as effective in the second half. It's just a little too long for what it is, and the jokes start to run thin after a couple hundred pages. It's also not as tightly plotted, and it felt like Jantha was spinning their wheels by the end. The group doesn't have a clear plan for getting rid of the witches, ever, and there are simply too many elements added into the end to make it plausible. Hocus Pocus has always stretched believability a bit, but at least it was simple, which the sequel certainly is not by the time all is said and done. While I was a bit weary of it by the end, I enjoyed seeing new and familiar characters, and I hope to eventually see them (again) on the screen.
