Fans are immensely excited to check out the highly anticipated Hocus Pocus 2 when it premieres later this month, but with the film being a Disney+ original, most viewers will be relegated to watching it on their TVs at home, though fans in the Los Angeles area will be able to see not only the sequel, but also the original, on a big screen at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery. In addition to a double-feature event, Disney+ will also be screening The Nightmare Before Christmas and select episodes of Marvel Studios TV series to get audiences into the spirit of the spooky season. You can check out the full details of the events below before they are held in October.
Per press release, “Disney+ is taking over the iconic Hollywood Forever Cemetery from October 7th-8th for a special Hallowstream outdoor screen event, treating fans in Los Angeles to some of the Hallowstream collection’s most wicked offerings.
