- Bette Midler as Winifred Sanderson. Just try to think of Hocus Pocus without immediately hearing Midler's hilariously calling out, "Sisters!" The iconic actress gave one of the most memorable performances of her career in the cult hit, with thousands of fans still dressing as her Winifred for Halloween every year.
- Sarah Jessica Parker as Sarah Sanderson. A pre-Sex and the City Parker stole the show with her air-headed Sarah, whose voice lures children out of their beds in the night during the culmination of the movie.
- Kathy Najimy as Mary Sanderson. If Sarah was the pretty Sanderson sister, then Mary was definitely the sweetest — and most hilarious. Najimy's twisted-mouthed, almost timid performance as the sister who ends up having to fly around on a vacuum cleaner is still a highlight.
- Omri Katz as Max. The virgin who lit the black candle and got the party started. Katz's wide-eyed Max, who would do anything to protect his little sister Dani, is the grounding force of the movie.
