The Sanderson sisters are back, and they're as spooky as ever!

Pretend it's October and prepare for Halloween as the new trailer for the long-awaited Hocus Pocus 2 film has arrived.

Forget trick or treating, this film is a must-watch every October 31st and now there's going to be a sequel to enjoy too.

The sequel is coming out 29 years after the original, and we are heading back to Salem with the original Sanderson sisters cast.

They're terrorising a new group of teenagers this time.

Winifred is once again played by Bette Midler, Sarah by Sarah Jessica Parker and Mary by Kathy Najimy.

Max, Dani and Allison are replaced by Becca (Whitney Peak), Izzy (Belissa Escobedo) and Cassie (Lilia Buckingham).

Once more, unknowing teenagers unleash the witches on their town, who of course cause chaos.

The trailer features Becca being asked what her plans are: "Birthday ritual, scary movie marathon – same as every year,"

Watch the trailer below:

Gilbert (Sam Richardson) is the owner of the local magic shop.

He's seen telling them: "You know, legend has it, it’s on her 16th birthday that a witch gets her powers."

The girls are then sitting in a graveyard chanting.

Soon, the sisters are unleashed and Winifred cries: ‘Lock up your children! Yes Salem, we’re back!’

‘Hey, it’s the Sanderson sisters!’ someone yells, adding: ‘I bet you’re looking for the stage?’

Winifred replies: ‘Always,' so here's hoping we get another fabulous musical number.

The film is due for release in September, so get making those Halloween plans.
