Here's a sneak peak at the video I'll likely be posting tomorrow. If you've never seen Hocus Pocus, it's a campy 90's Halloween cult favourite with music by the late great James Horner. I hope you enjoy this creepy yet relaxing lullaby.

Come Little Children - From Hocus Pocus (Cover by Hildegard von Blingin')

Glad tidings for Autumn and the upcoming All Hallows' Eve! In honour of spooky season, I offer you this cover of Come Little Children (Sarah's Theme), composed by James Horner for Hocus Pocus. The extended lyrics have some rather foggy origins, but I discovered them through Erutan's wonderful cover of this song.

When I got the email for this I nearly screamed. I loved Hocus Pocus when I was younger - we watched it every Halloween season - and Come Little Children has always been an enduring earworm even into my adult life. I'm over the moon that you've covered it!

On my third listen already

This utterly made my day! On repeat for over an hour... what an excellent version to write to.

When I saw this, I immediately started thinking about how a Bardcore cover of Monster Mash would sound. So I’ll put that in as a request for next year

Ahhh James Horner, sigh... So many beautiful soundtracks, his passing has left a hole that's hard to fill, if I had to choose my fav (which is next to impossible) I would have to to say Willow not only for the music but the memories of that movie. (Just came back from the states with a little treasure of the sequel book to Willow, Shadow Moon.)
