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.

There was a lot of it going on in Southern Africa.

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?!
