- Ale Russian
- 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.
Mick Garris. Screenplay, Story. After 300 years of slumber, three sister witches are accidentally resurrected in Salem on Halloween night, and it is up to three kids and their newfound feline friend to put an end to the witches' reign of terror once and for all.
- Bette Midler (Winifred) Best line: "Oh look, another glorious morning. Makes me sick!" Winifred is the ringleader of the Sanderson sisters.

- Sarah Jessica Parker (Sarah) Best line: "My lucky rat tail! Just where I left it!" The youngest Sanderson sister, Sarah is especially interested in the teenage boys the witches encounter.
- Kathy Najimy (Mary) Best line: "Since this promises to be a most dire and stressful evening, I suggest we form a calming circle." Mary is the sweetest Sanderson witch—if sweet witches can really be a thing.
- Omri Katz (Max) Best line: "Let's light this sucker and meet the old broads." Max is a new kid in Salem, an outcast Cali dude who thinks Halloween is just for candy companies.
