While it often feels like the “forgotten” Halloweentown movie, Halloweentown High—the third installment in the beloved Disney franchise—is certainly not one to skip over. With Marnie (Kimberly J. Brown) continuing her efforts to bridge the gap between the mortal world and Halloweentown, she sets up an exchange student program that allows ogre, werewolf, and witch teens from the other dimension to go to school in the mortal world. When Marnie accidentally bets all of the Cromwell magic on the fact that everything will go according to plan, she’s given until midnight on Halloween to prove that mortals and magical creatures can co-exist, otherwise, her entire family is at risk of losing their powers. This might be the only Halloweentown movie that doesn’t take place in Halloweentown, but that doesn’t make it any less integral to the story, especially going into the fourth and final installment, Return to Halloweentown.
