Disney has a thing for reviving chaos and nostalgia. From resurrecting fairy tales to reanimating witches, the studio clearly knows how to make magic trend. Now, as whispers of Hocus Pocus 3 swirl through Salem’s virtual fog, fans are sharpening their broomsticks and theories. Because when the words Stranger Things and Disney share a headline, you just know a new kind of witchcraft is brewing.

As nostalgia brews stronger than a Salem potion, a familiar cast is already dusting off their spellbooks for round three of magical mayhem.

The coven is back, and possibly stronger than ever. Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy have all teased a return, proving immortality is easier when your fans never move on. But the real curveball is Tobias Jelinek, aka the bully Jay from Hocus Pocus and that lead agent from Stranger Things season 1. His rumored comeback adds a Netflix-meets-Disney flavor, the cinematic equivalent of pumpkin spice with a caffeine shot.

While the cast brews familiar magic, the real enchantment hides in what they will unleash next.

Disney is being hush-hush, but witches are terrible at keeping secrets. With Hocus Pocus 2 leaving behind enchanted loose ends, part three might explore the legacy curse, or a new generation dumb enough to light the candle again. Director Anne Fletcher’s return promises more chaotic charm and feminist fury. Expect flying Roombas, Gen Z hexes, and emotional damage disguised as witch humor. Modern Salem is about to get another supernatural audit.

As the spell thickens, the only mystery left is when the witches plan to crash screens again.

In 2023, Disney executive Sean Bailey confirmed to The New York Times that Hocus Pocus 3 is officially brewing its comeback as a Disney+ original. While fans hope for an early resurrection, 2026 or 2027 seems like the season to embrace. Meanwhile, Tobias Jelinek from Stranger Things is already making waves, as Disney and Stranger Things have circled each other already. Between multiverse vibes, fan theories, and nostalgic chaos, patience is required. The Sanderson sisters are, as always, fashionably late, but the hype is absolutely on time.
