Yes to this. A thousand times, yes!

“My ungodly book speaks to you. On All Hallow’s Eve, when the moon is round, a virgin will summon us from under the ground. Oh oh! We shall be back, and the lives of all the children of Salem will be mine!”

It’s been 21 long years since the Sanderson sisters first crashed into our lives.

Now, finally, there’s hope they may make a return.

Original star Bette Midler got the ball rolling earlier this week, and her screen sisters weren’t long echoing her sentiments.

Midler, 68, was participating in a Reddit AMA when she said that all three actresses wanted a follow-up to the cult Disney hit.

Najimy, 57, was quick to follow up, taking to Twitter to say “Bette says it best” and promising to pick up her phone should Disney call.

 

With two on board, a fan asked Sarah Jessica Parker, 49, if she was willing to complete the trio for a screen reunion. She answered with a simple “Yep, I’m in”.

In an email sent to Buzzfeed, Najimy wrote: “The outpouring of love from Hocus-ites has been astounding. The creativity of their Sanderson sisters costumes, posters, artwork, t-shirts, statues, TV stills, photos, compliments and line quotes have blown up social media and I want them to know…We see and appreciate it all. When a film is being shot, you never quite know the impact.. If it’ll be a hit or a miss, and..with this one …we hear y’all loud and clear! A sequel is totally in The Disney company’s hands— And it will be exciting to see what transpires!”
