Movies With The Mouse Episode 35 - Spells, Pumpkins, and Disney Magic
Grab your broomsticks and pumpkin spice, because we’re flying straight into the magical world of Halloweentown! In this episode, we dive deep into Disney Channel’s 1998 classic that turned every October into pure magic. We’ll explore Marnie Piper’s journey of discovering her witchy heritage, her grandmother Aggie Cromwell’s unforgettable charm, and how one made-for-TV movie became a Halloween tradition for generations. From its themes of family, identity, and self-acceptance to its cozy, spooky world filled with quirky creatures, Halloweentown remains one of the most beloved Disney Channel Original Movies ever made.
We’ll also uncover the film’s cultural impact — how it helped shape late-’90s Disney storytelling, inspired a generation of young witches and dreamers, and cemented itself as a fall favorite. Plus, we share behind-the-scenes fun facts, like how it was filmed in St. Helens, Oregon (now home to a real-life Halloweentown festival!) and why Debbie Reynolds’ iconic performance continues to glow like a jack-o’-lantern decades later. Whether you grew up watching it on repeat or you’re discovering it for the first time, this episode celebrates the nostalgia, magic, and heart that make Halloweentown an October essential. So tune in, light your cauldron candles, and join us as we step into the world “where every day is Halloween.” 🎃
