That's what the directors said, but i'm going to call bull on that since they didn't recast anyone else.

Why is everyone so dim. They recasted her because they found a younger thinner version of the actress. pretty obvious but they aren't going to say that.

[@SeanMcGuire92]

Fun fact: the original Marnie actress and the actor who played Kal in Halloweentown 2 met back up 10 years later to do a KZbin sketch together, became friends again, started dating, and are now engaged!

@@lecherouslibrarian9924 your explanation makes sense, but you don't know if he did change, because we, Mexicans, can be white too...

Actually the Witching Hour is 3am-4am. And it's also called the Devil's Hour. It comes from Religious superstition. No one is praying at 3-4am therefor, the evil has more power during that time. However, most scientists believe this was caused by the fact that most people hit their deepest sleep at 3am and if you suddenly wake up, you can experience all sorts of weird feelings and/or hallucinations because your brain isn't actually fully awake.
