Hide AdEvans has yet to make his first-team debut for Everton but he has been a regular for the club's Under-23 side during the last couple of seasons.
He enjoyed a positive loan spell with Morecambe during the 2016/17 campaign, scoring twice and producing two assists in his 15 games for the club.
One of those goals came at Bloomfield Road in a 3-1 defeat to Blackpool in March 2017.
Evans said: “This (move) is what I needed at this stage of the season.

Evans' signing follows Blackpool's capture of Matty Virtue, a 21-year-old midfielder who has penned a two-and-a-half year deal after Pool agreed to pay an undisclosed fee.
Blackpool's business is not done for the night, with an outgoing expected to be confirmed before the 11pm deadline.
