1. Hoodoo and Voodoo Folk Magic of the American South By Trevór Jay Clinton

2. Hoodoo Vs. Voodoo Voodoo is a religion that mixes east African Vodun and Catholicism Hoodoo is a type of witchcraft that is closely related to Voodoo

3. Types of Hoodoo Practitioners of hoodoo are called Bokor or root doctors Hoodoo is divided into two types; white magic and black magic White magic hoodoo is the art of healing using herbs and roots Black hoodoo involves curses and the creation of zombis A Gris-Gris, not a voodoo doll. A Gris-Gris is mainly used for healing

4. Misconceptions Voodoo dolls are not associated with voodoo but with hoodoo black magic The Priests and Priestesses of Voodoo worship the Loa and are not involved with the black magic of the Bokor sorcerers Zombis creation is done by the sorcerers, not the Voodoo priests Puffer fish that has TTX, one of the poisons used in creation on real zombis
