CACHE IS NOT AT THE POSTED COORDS.  The final is NOT in anyone's yard.

Every Halloween JrPuppyPaw and I enjoy watching Hocus Pocus over and over and over.  I hope as the years go by this continues to be one of our traditions.  We were excited about the sequel - I liked it but JrPuppyPaw didn’t make it the whole way through.  So these questions are all from the original Hocus Pocus movie.

 

The first Hocus Pocus movie came out in 199_?_

On what special day can the sisters be brought back

Town where the story takes place

Which witch wears the purple cloak

The name of Max’s little sister

First name of the zombie

What is on the cover of the spell book

^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*

The state Max’s family moved from

A circle of what will protect you from the witches

Max’s little sister dresses up as what for Halloween

Name of Max's crush

Object Mary uses as a broom

The girl who is kidnapped at the beginning of the movie

Color of the candle’s flame

 

 

You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.

 

Stop!

 

I smell children...

I wasn't making head way with the puzzle. So, I sit it aside until I could work on it. I attended an event and got a little nudge. Bingo, I got it solved. I ran out today before tomorrow's snow to look for the final. It took a bit to spot the cache but I was able to find this fun container.

Hurray! Spartacus Geodog and I made another attempt today to find Hocus Pocus. This time, we crawled to the center of the host for a different viewpoint. That helped and we just had to remember the exact spot for access at a closer angle. The cache is awesome - gets a favorite point! But wait! The fun continued as I picked twigs out of the outside and inside of my clothing for the rest of our outing!
Thanks for the placement, lasouthpaw!

I met with Fork L Man this morning and we drove around Broomfield to find many of the newer caches in the area. This was a fun find. TFTC!

I have not seen the movie, but I want to now. A great puzzle and cache. I would like to say more but shouldn't. A favorite point duly awarded. Cheers.

Saw a couple DNFs and was driving by so I stopped to check on the cache. Everything is in good shape here, just well hidden.

First, I was tricked. Second, I was gleeful when I figured out the puzzle and received a happy checker. Third, I felt tricked again as I dragged Spartacus Geodog in a circle numerous times with no joy. I was so looking forward to this find. Poo. P.S. I did find a pair of worn out sheepskin slippers.

Woo hoo! I got this Halloween FTF at 1:07 pm. I dawdled around this morning and went to the grocery store to get pumpkin yogurt, apple cider, pumpkin pie and some other more boring non-Halloween/Fall themed stuff like kale and OJ. It was a real treat to find this clever cache and lasouthpaw definitely almost tricked me (in the spirit of Halloween). Halloween is my favorite holiday and I also l like the movie Hocus Pocus. It came out in my freshman year of college and has remained a classic in my mind. Tell jrpuppypaw that she is required to stay forever young at heart and continue watching Hocus Pocus at Halloween with her mom. This one gets a favorite point, of course. TFTMC
