A type of folk magic used in New Orleans and surrounding areas of New Orleans marked by a belief in sorcery, primitive deities, fetishes, and magical spells and curses. In voodoo, objects like roots, gris-gris bags, powders, graveyard dirt, and poppets or voodoo dolls are employed for magical effect for the purpose of material gain or against an enemy.
Voodoo is more or less synonymous with hoodoo and is not to be confused with the religion of Vodou.
