"It was cut and edited completely differently than it was filmed", Kathy revealed to SyFy Wire. "It was really more about the witches and less about the kids", but apparently Disney wanted to make it more kid-friendly. So the decision was taken to focus on a group of kids trying to defeat three witches with evil intentions.
Of the scenes that were cut, Kathy recalled a sequence in a grocery story, which can still be seen one of the trailers for the film. "That was a good one. That was so fun... Mary got to be set loose in a supermarket!"
