Where Was the Movie Hocus Pocus Filmedの全体像を詳しく解説してご紹介します。

If you guessed the movie was filmed in Salem, Massachusetts, you’re absolutely right—well, mostly. The film uses Salem as its backdrop, but most of the actual filming took place a few hours away. Confused? Don’t worry, I’ll untangle that like a string of Halloween lights.

The exterior of the Sanderson sisters’ cottage? That’s totally a real house… but not in Salem. You’ll find it at 108 Ocean Street in Marblehead, Massachusetts. It’s a private home, so please don’t try to knock and ask for a potion.

Even better: the iconic scene where the witches fly over the town? That’s a combination of shots from Salem’s Washington Square and some clever movie magic. The actual streets you see were dressed up to look colonial—because Salem itself is already basically a historical theme park.

The School and the Cemetery

Remember the scene where Max and Dani trick-or-treat at the old school? That’s Phillips Elementary School in Beverly, Massachusetts. It’s a real school, but I doubt any students have been turned into cats recently. (Probably.)

The cemetery where the Sanderson sisters rise from the dead? That’s the Old Burial Hill in Marblehead. It’s a legit historic graveyard dating back to the 1600s. Spooky, right? Just be careful you don’t accidentally light a black flame candle.

And the bonfire scene where the kids chant to Billy? That was shot at Salem Common, a public park in Salem. Today you can visit it and pretend you’re summoning a zombie—just maybe check the local noise ordinance first.
