If there’s one movie that people consider an iconic Halloween movie – it’s ‘Hocus Pocus’.
Three young sisters from Waco, Texas are big fans of the Sanderson sisters of Hocus Pocus and their Halloween costumes from 2018 are surely going to put a spell on you and inspire you for future costumes. Plus the photoshoot that went along with it? Absolute perfection.
Landri Grabenstein, 7, and her twin sisters Alli and Maddi Grabenstein, 9, adorably transform into the three witchy sisters from the 1993 classic movie and they couldn’t have pulled it off any better.
Landri, the youngest, dressed up as Mary, the slightly-odd and quirky witch played by actress Kathy Najimy.
The slight snarl in her lip and the lace-up costume is a spot-on imitation of the eccentric witch.
Alli dressed up as Sarah – played by Sarah Jessica Parker.
In the movie, Sarah is a boy-crazy witch who is easily distracted. But this witch? Well, she’s just adorable in her purple and pink gown. The mole on her chin just nails the details of the costume.
And Maddi dressed up as the ring leader – Winifred, who was played by the legendary Bette Midler.
Every bit of the Winifred costume was done to a ‘T’. The bright red giant hair, the always-pursed, heart-shaped lips, the cloak, and the book of spells. It’s just so adorably perfect!
The young girls have always been big fans of the light-hearted Halloween movie.
“October 1st rolls around and they’re asking, ‘Mommy, can we watch ‘Hocus Pocus?'” mom Heather Grabenstein of Waco, Texas, told “Good Morning America.”
The precious photos were shot by Heather Rust of Tiny Hearts Imagery (previously known as Heather Rust Photography) who specializes in newborn and maternity photography – but she clearly has a knack for capturing kids as well. She had no idea just how popular her photos would be, of course, she knew how cute the girls looked!
“They are the sassiest little things,” the photographer shared. “I thought it might go viral, but nothing like this.”
This isn’t the first time the young sisters have spent their Halloween trick-or-treating in a group costume.
In previous years, Landri, Alli, and Maddi have dressed up as the Powerpuff Girls and a group of superheroes – Wonder Woman, Batgirl, and Harley Quinn. Each time, their mom Heather absolutely nails the costumes.
And for 2019? The sisters are adorably pulling off some spot-on costumes from the cult-classic musical ‘Grease’.
The little girls fell in love with the movie and the music after seeing the TV special.
“I recorded it and we watched it, and watched it,” Grabenstein of Waco said. “It’s so funny how much they get into playing their characters.”
“Landri said, ‘Mommy, we need to watch it again because I’ve got to get the sass down,'” she said.
Heather Rust from Tiny Hearts Imagery shot the Grease photoshoot as well, and we’d have to say we can’t decide which costumes we love more!
As far as years to come? Heather Grabenstein is debating between options like ‘Charlie’s Angels’ and ‘A League of Their Own’. We have a feeling that no matter what? They’ll be priceless.
