chosen: Voodoo is a belief system, cultural practice, and religion that originated in Western Africa and was brought to Louisiana by Africans enslaved in the French and Spanish colonies. Voodoo practitioners often use spiritual possession, ritual, and magic in order to promote healing, prosperity, and good luck. It is generally believed that voodoo hexes have the power to bring about physical and spiritual harm, although the effectiveness of the hexes is disputed.
