Disney's Witch Mountain franchise follows psychic alien siblings on the run from people who want to exploit their powers. With sequels and remakes spanning 34 years, here's the complete watch order.
Tony and Tia seem like ordinary orphans, but their telekinesis and mysterious memories point to an extraterrestrial origin. Escape to Witch Mountain became a Disney family classic in 1975, followed by a theatrical sequel and a TV continuation. Disney later remade the story for TV in 1995 and reinvented it as a Dwayne Johnson action movie in 2009.
๐ Release Order
Release order runs through the original trilogy before the two reimaginings.
- Escape to Witch Mountain (1975)
- Return from Witch Mountain (1978)
- Beyond Witch Mountain (1982)
- Escape to Witch Mountain (1995)
- Race to Witch Mountain (2009)
The first three entries follow the same characters, although the TV movie Beyond Witch Mountain recast the siblings. The 1995 TV movie is a remake, and Race to Witch Mountain is a new story that includes cameos from the original Tony and Tia actors, Ike Eisenmann and Kim Richards.
๐ Story Chronology
Story order keeps the original continuity together, followed by the standalone remake and reboot.
- Escape to Witch Mountain (1975)
- Return from Witch Mountain (1978)
- Beyond Witch Mountain (1982)
- Escape to Witch Mountain (1995)
- Race to Witch Mountain (2009)
Which Order Should You Choose?
Release order and chronology match, so start with the 1975 original and its 1978 sequel, which features Bette Davis and Christopher Lee as villains. Families wanting a modern action pace can jump straight to Race to Witch Mountain, which works without any prior viewing. It's a great franchise for introducing kids to classic Disney sci-fi.
