The Cast of ‘Halloweentown’ Reunited for the First Time in 20 Years & I’m feeling Nostalgic

Can you believe it’s been 20 years since Marnie visited Halloweentown for the first time? We’re still obsessed! The cast of the Halloween-themed DCOM, Halloweentown, came together last weekend in St. Helens, Oregon to celebrate and greet fans.

It’s also the first time the Cromwells and Kalabar have all been together since filming in 1998. Actors Kimberly J. Brown (Marnie), Judith Hoag (Gwen), Joey Zimmerman (Dylan), Emily Roeske (Sophie) and Robin Thomas (Kalabar) were all there, with Brown sharing all the fun on Instagram, including a picture with her on-screen nemesis. 

“I’m sensing a familiar family nemesis in my midst,” Brown wrote.

Sadly, there was one Cromwell that was not in attendance. Our favorite magic-loving Grandma Aggie, played by Debbie Reynolds, died in 2016.

According to Alternative Press, the cast would be paying tribute to Reynolds during the reunion. “We wanted to do a special tribute to her and her role as Grandma Aggie and have a small monument set up there for her, so we’re going to do that this year during the lighting ceremony,” Brown said.

With the spooky season quickly approaching, we can’t wait to dust off our flying brooms and rewatch the legacy of Halloweentown!
