Hocus Pocus 2 Original Soundtrack is available digitally today with the CD set for release on November 11th.

“Witches Are Back,” and “One Way or Another” (Hocus Pocus 2 Version) are performed by Bette Midler, Kathy Najimy and Sarah Jessica Parker with additional lyrics by Bette Midler and Tony®, Emmy®, Grammy®-winning and Oscar®-nominated composer and lyrist Marc Shaiman (“Bros,” “Hawkeye,” “Mary Poppins Returns”). Shaiman also co-produced the two songs and serves as the pianist on all score cues.

Debney comments, “Having started my career with Hocus Pocus 1, what a wonderful bookend to have just completed Hocus Pocus 2. To re-explore the wonderful world of our beloved witches has been an absolute joy. Working with the amazingly talented director Anne Fletcher, we strove to both capture the magic of the first film while giving the new one its own voice and darkly fun attitude. I hope that fans of the original film will love the new film creating a whole new generation of fans….and being reunited with the incredible Marc Shaiman has been an absolute joy as we again explore the musical landscape of Hocus Pocus!!”

Marc Shaiman adds, “It was great to be back with the Hocus Pocus gang. I have worked with my friends Bette, Sarah Jessica and Kathy since before time began and it’s still a thrill. And to once again share music duties with John Debney is an honor. And to shoulder music producing responsibilities with Ryan Tedder makes me feel cooler than I ever could have imagined. I hope listeners enjoy hearing all our work as much as we enjoyed creating it.”

About ” Hocus Pocus 2″

“Hocus Pocus 2” is a haunting sequel to the Halloween classic which brings back the delightfully wicked Sanderson sisters for more comedic mayhem. “Hocus Pocus 2” stars Bette Midler (“The First Wives Club,” “Beaches”), Sarah Jessica Parker (“Sex and the City,” “Divorce”), and Kathy Najimy (“Sister Act,” “Younger”), and is directed by Anne Fletcher (“Dumplin,'” “The Proposal”).

It’s been 29 years since someone lit the Black Flame Candle and resurrected the 17th-century sisters, and they are looking for revenge. Now it is up to three high-school students to stop the ravenous witches from wreaking a new kind of havoc on Salem before dawn on All Hallow’s Eve. “Hocus Pocus 2” also stars Sam Richardson (“The Tomorrow War”), Doug Jones (“The Shape of Water”), Hannah Waddingham (“Ted Lasso”), Whitney Peak (“Gossip Girl”), Belissa Escobedo (“American Horror Stories”), Lilia Buckingham (“Dirt”), Froy Gutierrez (“Teen Wolf”), and Tony Hale (“Veep”). The film is produced by Lynn Harris (“King Richard,” “The Shallows”), with Ralph Winter (“Hocus Pocus,” “X-Men” franchise), David Kirschner (“Hocus Pocus,” “Chucky”), and Adam Shankman (“Disenchanted,” “Hairspray”) serving as executive producers.
