Directed by Kenny Ortega, Hocus Pocus is a family comedy film about three witches who are resurrected after 300 years when a young boy lights a cursed Candle of Black Flame. The film is very popular among the fans of the genre but though the three lead actors have participated in several Hocus Pocus events over the years, they have rarely made appearances together. One can buy the tickets for the virtual event from the official website and it costs $10.

The NYRP was founded in the year 1995 by Bette Midler and takes pride in the work they have done over the years. The New York Restoration Project has planted trees, renovated gardens, restored parks, and transformed open space for communities throughout New York City’s five boroughs. As New York’s only citywide conservancy, they bring private resources to spaces that lack adequate municipal support, fortifying the City’s ageing infrastructure and creating a healthier environment for those who live in the most densely populated and least green neighbourhoods.
