Omri Katz is opening up about what it was actually like filming the 1993 Halloween classic Hocus Pocus.
EW recently sat with the cast of the film, and Katz revealed that while filming "certain important scenes" of the movie, he was high as a kite.
Katz said, "That was at an age where I started experimenting with cannabis. Let's just say, some of those scenes, I was having a good old time."

Kenny (director Kenny Ortega) comes up to me and practically grabs me by the shirt, and he was like, "Are you high?" and I was like, "No," and of course, I was.
"We got it done, but that was kind of a wake-up call, like, Omri, you've got to be a little more professional and make sure you hit your cues!"
Katz retired from acting, with his last credit being a short film Journey Into Night in 2002. Now, the 46-year-old operates, fittingly enough, a marijuana company.
