In the original "Hocus Pocus," the aforementioned Black Flame Candle has to be lit by a virgin, and that rather outdated detail gets its own little reference in the new movie. As Olde Salem Magic Shoppe's storeowner Gilbert (Sam Richardson) explains how the Black Flame Candle works, a young onlooker asks, "What's a virgin?" In response, Gilbert stutters, "That is a, uh, a person who has never . . . lit a candle." It's a fun, lighthearted footnote to one of the more archaic parts of the original movie.
