✨ “Her light may be gone… but she still guides us home.”
The magic of Halloweentown returns in a heartfelt, spellbinding sequel that celebrates family, legacy, and the timeless bond between generations.
🕯️ A Return to the Magic We Grew Up With
Two decades after fans first visited the charming, spooky streets of Halloweentown, Disney Channel brings back its beloved world with The Pumpkin Glows Again — a nostalgic yet deeply emotional continuation of the franchise that enchanted audiences in the late ’90s.
Kimberly J. Brown reprises her iconic role as Marnie Piper, joined by Joey Zimmerman (Dylan) and Emily Roeske (Sophie), as the Cromwell siblings reunite when the mystical Great Pumpkin — the glowing heart of Halloweentown — begins to fade for the first time in a century.
This time, the story turns inward — it’s not just about magic spells, but the power of memory and love.
🕯️ Honoring Granny Aggie’s Legacy
In a touching creative decision, the film incorporates special archive footage of Debbie Reynolds, whose warmth as Granny Aggie made her a pop culture icon. The film’s dedication to her memory is not just cinematic — it’s emotional.
“Granny Aggie was the soul of Halloweentown,” says director Allison Liddi-Brown, who returns to helm this special installment. “This movie is about how love doesn’t fade, even when someone you adore is gone. That’s what Debbie taught us.”
🎭 A Story of Family, Magic, and Heart
When the Great Pumpkin dims, Marnie and her siblings must search through their family’s history — uncovering memories, laughter, and even tears — to reignite the ancient magic that binds their world together. Along the way, they rediscover what Aggie always said:
“Magic isn’t in your wand. It’s in your heart.”
The movie balances nostalgia with a new generation’s energy — expect updated special effects, rich autumn visuals, and a story that tugs at every heartstring.
🌙 Why Fans Are Excited
From social media campaigns to fan conventions, Halloweentown remains one of Disney’s most enduring cult classics. With its familiar cast, heartfelt storytelling, and a message about keeping loved ones’ light alive, The Pumpkin Glows Again feels like both a reunion and a farewell — a perfect Halloween comfort film for longtime fans and new audiences alike.
