The film sees Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy reprise their roles of Winifred, Sarah, and Mary, the delightfully wicked Sanderson sisters who bewitched audiences in the original. 

Doug Jones also returns as Billy Butcherson alongside franchise newcomers Whitney Peak as Becca, Lilia Buckingham as Cassie, and Belissa Escobedo  as Izzy, three young women in present-day Salem who incite the wrath of the three witches.

Synopsis:
It’s been 29 years since someone lit the Black Flame Candle and resurrected the 17th-century sisters who were executed for practicing witchcraft, and they are looking for revenge. Now it’s up to three high-school students to figure out how to stop the ravenous witches from wreaking a new kind of havoc on Salem before midnight on All Hallow’s Eve.
