According to Film Music Reporter, John Debney, the film’s original composer, will return to score the long-awaited sequel, which begins filming next week.

“Hocus Pocus 2 will revolve around an aspiring witch named Becca. A teenager with few friends, Becca accidentally summons back the Sanderson Sisters on Halloween after finding a dark flame candle at the local magic shop- also the Sanderson Sisters’ former home. The character of Becca is joined by two of her classmates, Izzy and Cassie, an “oddball” and a popular girl who also happens to be Becca’s bully. Other characters include Giles the magic shop owner and Sam who is a fellow classmate, a worker at the shop, and potential romantic interest. Lastly, the film will feature Luann, Becca’s stepmother whom she dislikes.”
