Thora Birch aka Dani

Thora Birch aka Dani — ‘Hocus Pocus’ is one of the most prolific Halloween movies of all time. Millennials all remember the classic from their childhoods — the Sanderson Sisters come back to terrorize their town after a misfit kid accidentally brings them back to life 300 years later. Max, his little sister, and his love interest have to fight for their lives before the witches put a spell on them, and eat the kids! So, what are the cast of ‘Hocus Pocus’ up to today?

Thora Birch, seen here, played Dani, Max’s little sis who almost became the Sanderson Sisters’ dinner. She was played by Thora Birch, who went on to star in films like ‘Ghost World’, ‘American Beauty’, and ‘Now & Then’. Her most recent project was the film ‘Above Suspicion’, in which she co-starred with ‘Game of Thrones’ star Emilia Clarke.
