Allison is one of the tritagonists and the crush and later girlfriend of Max Dennison in the Halloween comedy-fantasy film Hocus Pocus. Allison, unlike Max, is highly passionate and interested in Halloween and the supernatural, and shows a particular interest in the history of the Sanderson sisters. She comments that her mother was the previous owner of their cottage when it was a museum, however she abandoned such ownership following several strange and supernatural occurrences in such property. She and her parents also appear to be rather wealthy; they are shown living in a large house in Salem, and on Halloween host an extravagant costume party with a French aristocratic theme which is boring to her.
