Ok can some one please help me with this. My sister and I were talking about this movie that we both loved as kids. Its about a boy and girl that for some reason want to have a Halloween party in this old mansion. The problem is that the house is in habited by this old witch and her cat. The old witch is really thin has a huge nose and has a black cape. The only thing that is different in this from other witches or at least what I can remember is that she doesn't have a traditional witch hat but has what kind of looks like a ski mask that allows you to see her entire face. I know its really obscure facts but this most of what I can remember. I do have a vague recollection of the song at the beginning. Mind you I was five at the time when I last saw this, but I swear they lyrics would say some like "western magic halloween?" I could easily be wrong but that's what I remember. Hopefully you guys can help

Well, you didn't say if this was live action or an animated movie. If it is animated, then I think I know what it is. Its called Witch's Night Out.
Here is a description from Wikipedia:
The plot involves a witch who accompanies two children named Small and Tender with their babysitter (Bazooey) to a Halloween party and transforms them into a werewolf, Frankenstein's monster, and a ghost (previously their Halloween costumes). The witch takes them to the Halloween party-in-progress at her house. Other citizens of the town get offended. They try to catch these supernatural beings as a mob. The children and Bazooey spend the night as real eerie creatures but decide they need to become human beings again. A disco song entitled "Witch Magic" was sung in this film.
This might be what you saw. Hope I'm right.
