A friend of mine wrote “Rise Headless and Ride”, the Jason Crane series. It’s about an updated version of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow and there’s a lot of witches in it. So, he moved to Sleepy Hollow and was given access to areas that are not allowed by the public. He now is in Salem continuing Books 4-6. Again, the chamber of commerce gave him access to places all through Salem and they let him go alone so that he could get the true flavor of each place. He has full access to all of the documents from the witch trials plus input by modern day witches that live there. In both cities, he makes sure that every street, every store, real people of the past are correct. (He also wrote me in as a character and I was so glad to find out when I read it that I didn’t die!! 💀🎃

[@bugkillah9389]

The reason why they had different deaths in the end is because Winni stepped on the graveyard which turned her into a stone before the sun rised completely. Shortly after that, her sisters explode because of the sun and Winni still remaind as a statue/stone. Since there is going to be a sequel, I think they will be able to bring Winni back because she died in a different way and then she will try to bring her sisters back with the help of the book. I am not sure if this is the way they will do the sequel but its the most that make sense to me at least xD Btw I loved your reaction it was very wholesome im glad you watched this movie its literally my childhood ^^

Winni did explode after into green dust.

Sorry my bad 😅 thanks for telling me

[@vittoryxe]

The sequel also had a book(not 100% if the new movie follows it). I really didnt like it, but if i remember correctly, Winnie, Sarah, and Mary didn't actually totally perish, but were sent to hell. Max and Allison's kid and her friends visit the old house and summon the sisters back by way of a ouija board. And there also was a 4th Sanderson sister. It was..just.a mess and a disservice to the movie.. Hopefully the movie won't follow the book to a T, so maybe it'll actually be good lmao.
