__Reference Background__ Voodoo is a belief and religion that is practiced throughout the world. The basic features of voodoo were brought by slaves from W Africa. Haiti was the first country whose primary religion was Voodoo, (as many as 60% of the People of Benin practice voodoo). Voodoo contends that all of nature is controlled. V oodo has over 50 million followers worldwide. Voodoo is a word of dahometer origin meaning spirit or god in the practice of Voodoo.

The Voodoo Doll represents the spirit of a person. You refer to the Voodoo Doll the same as if you are talking directly to the person the Voodoo Doll represents. You can give directions to the Voodoo Doll to change an attitude and change their ways. Also, the Dolls are many times used for positives, and then for revenge. If you wish to attract the love of another, you can stick a pin the heart of the Voodoo Doll. You can also request the doll to call upon powerful forces known as Loa. For example: one of my cousins was attracted to a married man. She requested that a spell be put on him and sent that request to a Voodoo follower in Haiti.She sent a picture of the man and they put a spell on a voodoo doll and sent the doll to her. They soon fell in love and he left his wife and kids, this shows that voodoo is a powerful magic and can harm many people.

Voodooworshipers are also known for their dancing when the spirit comes down on them. They jump into fire, they eat peppers, they dance naked they don’t even realize what they are doing. T he drummer is the life and soul of every ceremony For voodoo worshipers a drum is more than a sacred instrument, it is the vessel of a diety. Music and  dancing please the gods because the gods too are dancers. In a separate incident t here was a lady in Haiti that had the spirit while she was doing a ceremony. The spirit left her in the fire as a punishment and she burned to death. It is not easy to join this voodoo religion and there are many consequences you’ll pay for and regret.
