Sexy star of iconic Halloween movie unrecognisable 31 years after film

A SEXY Halloween movie star looks completely unrecognisable more than three decades since the freaky film's release.

The American actress, 72, who most recently starred in Netflix series Nobody Wants This, is also known for her role in family comedy Hocus Pocus.

Stephanie Faracy, who played Jenny Dennison in the Hocus Pocus cast, was known in the iconic flick for her blonde curly locks.

The Brooklyn-born star donned a daring red bodysuit with Madonna-inspired cone bra detail in one scene, after her character re-located from Los Angeles to Salem.

In the flick, Jenny and on-screen husband Dave head to a party - yet ultimately end up falling victim to a spell cast by the Sanderson sisters.

The witchy siblings, played by Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy, also made their long-awaited return in the Disney+ sequel last year.

Talking about Jenny's classic Blonde Ambition era look, Hocus Pocus' costume designer Mary Vogt told Bustle: "It was supposed to look slightly homemade.

"I look at that now and I’m embarrassed, it looks so cheesy."

But she added how Stephanie loved it and was tempted to steal it.

The original Hocus Pocus flick saw the child-killing coven conjured up by an ancient curse, three centuries after they were executed for witchcraft.

Teenager Max, his eight-year-old sister Dani and pal Allison stole the witches’ book of spells, with the help of a magical cat, to stop them from becoming immortal.

The popular trio returned for the sequel, Hocus Pocus 2, which sees the Sandersons accidentally awakened once again to wreak havoc on the world.

Yet Jenny's character - who was saved from the spell at the end of the first movie - did not reprise her role in the spin off.

ALL CHANGE

Stephanie now looks unrecognisable 31 years on.

The star has kept her blonde locks, but styled shoulder-length and straight.

She was spotted at a red carpet event wearing minimal make-up to showcase her natural glow.

The star merely opted for a slick of black mascara and pink lip gloss.

Stephanie has continued to star in a host of movie and TV roles.

The most memorable have been 2004's Sideways and 2010's Temple Grandin.

She has also starred in Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates and True Colors.
