Hocus Pocus 2 (2022)

Factual error: In one scene, Winifred asks Gilbert who Trask is and Gilbert replies that Trask is the "mayor", to which Winifred just acknowledges. However, the office of mayor was not created in Massachusetts until 1823, which is 130 years after they were hanged, so given the witch's lack of knowledge of the modern day, she would have likely not known what Gilbert meant.

Suggested correction: People in the American colonies knew about mayors, as English cities and some in the colonies already had them.

Very true; to add, the title of Mayor has existed since the 12th century.
