WESTWOOD (WBZ NewsRadio) — A Westwood woman is on a mission to reclaim a long-lost VHS tape of 'Hocus Pocus,' accidentally taken by a childhood friend that moved away 28 years ago.

In a post on TikTok, Elizabeth Maclay asked her followers if anyone could point her in the right direction to find her kindergarten bestie, Danielle.

Through the power of social media, Danielle herself found the post and left a comment. Unfortunately for Maclay, the VHS was long gone.

Mystery solved.

WBZ's Matt Shearer insisted on a happy ending for Maclay and gifted her with her very own copy of 'Hocus Pocus' on VHS. Unfortunately for this happy ending, Maclay doesn't have a VCR.
