New Orleans Voodoo

New Orleans Voodoo is a system of folk magic used in New Orleans and surrounding areas of Louisiana, in which 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. It is more or less synonyous with hoodoo and is not to be confused with the religion of Vodou.
