In the Blood: Considerably downplayed. He's nowhere near as cruel and despicable as his distant ancestor, but his reactions to being delayed, and ultimately denied, a gourmet caramel apple and having to (in his own words) "[...] settle for a caramel-covered matzo ball (from Walgreens)" shows that he can act just as spoiled as the Reverend when he's really pushed. Damsel in Distress: Just like Dani in the first movie, she gets captured by the witches in the third act. They need the blood of their enemy to cast Magicae Maxima, and since Cassie's a direct descendant of Reverend Traske, she's their closest source. The Wonka: A villainous example.

Until they called them ugly. Dumb Blonde: Sarah is the only blonde among the Sanderson sisters, and she's also the dumbest of the three.

Heroes (1993)

Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: The May 1992 draft of the screenplay describes Mary as having "the outward manner of a sweet as sugar kindly aunt." In reality, she’s far from it. Call-Forward: Her outfit consists of a red dress, a fringed cape, and a sun emblem. Dani would wear a very similar costume centuries later, implied to be based on the Mother Witch herself. In 1653 Salem, Massachusetts, Reverend Traske banishes 16-year-old Winifred Sanderson after she 'defied church authority' by refusing to marry John Pritchett. Rather than be away from her sisters, Mary and Sarah, "Winnie" takes them to a nearby forest. There, they meet with Mother Witch, who gives Winnie a magic, human-skin-bound book, with a living eyeball embedded in the cover, for her birthday; she also explicitly warns the trio against ever casting the Magicae Maxima spell, which makes the user 'all-powerful'. Mother Witch also teaches the trio how to keep their youth, using children. The sisters get revenge on the Reverend by cursing his home, which is engulfed in flames.
