Well when I was brought up in Africa it was very much alive and doing well.

It's from Haiti, New Orleans and West Africa and it's not neccessarily malevolent.

Yeah, that sounds about right to me.
There was a lot of it going on in Southern Africa.
Mind you, it was also used as a tool to instill fear.

I thought voodoo was just another name for black magic, as is obeah in jamaica, jadoo in pakistan, and so on....

I know it was very prominent in Haiti right? Wasn't their President an actual witch doctor not long back?!
