If you woke up one morning to find a creepy looking doll
in a small black casket on your front porch, what
would you do? Or what if you found a horrifying altered Brat
doll staring right at your car when you got off of work? Or
here's a good one, what if you are given a beautiful baby
doll by an in-law for your collection only to discover she
has no feet? Think I'm making this up? Then you must read on
because these stories, my friend, are true experiences by
readers just like you!
You have found an unusual looking
doll on your doorstep or in your parking garage at work. You get a
creepy feeling just looking at it. Come to think of it, you have had
a streak of bad luck lately. Was this doll put there for you to
find? Is someone sending you a message on the downlow?
A person who wants to lay a trick on
you can use any type of doll they wish. It does not have to be the
stereotypical ugly Voodoo doll with some of your personal effects
attached to it. Sometimes, it can be as innocent looking as a sweet
baby doll that is the object of any little girl's affection.
To
the left is a picture of a Voodoo doll believed to be put in the
path of someone at their place of employment. It was strategically
placed in the parking lot facing the individual's car. This looks
like one of those Brat dolls you can find in any department store.
But how would you know it is carrying a curse?
Well, the first clue is rather obvious - her face
is painted black. This is a good indication that it is a tool in
someone's ritual work. I mean, they don't come with their faces
painted black, do they?
Secondly, she has no feet. This is another
indication that this doll may have been intentionally tampered with
in an attempt to lay a curse on someone. Painting the face black and
removing the feet are both consistent with the general principle of
using shocking images to psych out the intended target. Also, what
is done to the doll can be viewed as a metaphor for what is intended
for the victim. For example, removing the feet is consistent with
restraining and rendering a person immobile.
The
doll below is another example of a doll that is believed to
have been used as a Voodoo doll. In this case, the doll bride was
used to represent the daughter-in-law of the the son of the person
casting the spell. At first glance, she seems like a beautiful baby
doll. But upon closer examination while removing the veil, it became
evident that her hair had been clipped off.
Check out the doll above. What a beautiful baby doll!
Until you look beneath her dress, that is...
Notice this doll baby doesn't have any feet either,
just like the first doll.
Not
everyone who believes they have been cursed or hoodooed
actually has been. To find out if you have been hoodooed,
you should have a divination done by a reputable
practitioner, or do a divination yourself using cards, a
pendulum, or some other divination system with which you are
familiar. The results of the divination will reveal whether
or not your situation is due to being crossed or jinxed.
If the misfortune
you are experiencing
is not due to a medical or mental health condition, and you are
certain it is due to some unwanted spiritual force, then you should
take steps to reverse it. It helps to know who has crossed you, and
it helps if you have the object with which you have been cursed so
that you can destroy it.
If you feel that you are in possession of a negative Voodoo
doll, the best thing to do is to put it in a white cloth and sprinkle it
generously with sea salt. You can then take it to a river or stream or deep in
the woods with an offering of fruit and some coins and ask the spirits of the
water or the trees to take this energy and transform it through the power of the
earth. Walk away without looking back and when you arrive home light a 7-day
protection candle and take a bath with cleansing herbs, including sea salt.
So, you think you are in possession of a Voodoo doll
that was meant to put a curse on you?
If
you think you've been hoodooed with a Voodoo doll, have no
fear. Or maybe you have used a Voodoo doll to put a curse on
someone else and simply don't know what to do with the doll
now. Maybe you purchased a Voodoo doll in the past and
it seemed like a good idea then, but now its kind of
creeping you out and you would rather get rid of it. Whatever the case is, there is
something you can do about it.
Our Cursed Voodoo doll disposal kits come complete with
everything you need to confidently and effectively end
any jinx or curse that has been laid on you, and safely
dispose of any Voodoo doll.If you feel that you are in possession of
a negative Voodoo doll and do not know what to do,
then this kit will guide you in the proper way to dispose of
it. Kit contains a blessed candle, clean white cloth, holy
water,
blessed salt, purification bath to wash away
negative energy, and complete instructions.

exactly as the title implies - Voodoo doll
spells! You will find Voodoo doll spells
never before printed anywhere! These
are all ancient New Orleans voodoo, hoodoo,
witchcraft, Greek, and Egyptian Voodoo doll
spells!
How would you like to open
Marie Laveau's trick bag of Voodoo Doll spells? The Great
and Powerful Voodoo Queen of New Orleans, Marie Laveau, was
known to create little dolls and place them on the doorsteps
of enemies, or use them to win court cases, or to unite
lovers. She had a veritable trick bag of brilliant methods
for gaining the knowledge he needed for her spells to be
effective. One ploy was to surreptitiously place a Voodoo
doll near the front door of her victims, more often than not
the house-servants of well-known New Orleans families. When
the Voodoo doll was discovered, the victim was convinced
they had been hexed by someone other than Marie, and would
run to the Bosswoman (as Marie was known by the locals) for
help. Marie would agree to render the doll harmless if the
victim agreed to act as her spy and provide her with
information about the affairs of the prominent family where
the victim worked. Now that is one hell of a magickal
manipulation!
Inside this book you will find
countless secret spells that help you to bind your enemies,
banish naysayers, bend people to do your will, and win court
cases. Learn how to break up a couple, destroy all of your
problems, get a job, cure sickness, call forth spirits, win
in games of chance and attain success. Inside, you will find
spells to make yourself irresistible, find a lover, make

just the tip of the iceberg.
How would you like to know how
to make your wishes come true? Or find true love? Catch a
thief? Keep your dog or cat from wandering off? Break a
curse? Or drive someone crazy?
And that is not all. For the
first time anywhere, you will learn how to protect yourself
with a Voodoo doll, and learn the secret for how to make a
Get Even Gris Gris Doll to even the score.

Voodoo Spellbook fame tells how to make money with a Voodoo
doll and how to protect yourself with a Voodoo doll.

as spells from ancient Egypt, Chaldea, Greece, Africa, and
Europe. Other spells are based on spells found in ancient
sacred texts, and many are from the grimoires of the author
herself, shared for the first time in the Voodoo Doll
Spellbook.

Mexico's
Island of the Dolls (La Isla De Las Munecas) is an isolated
weirdfest stuffed full of freaky lost plastic children
Text: David McComb / Photos:

May 2009
Gliding across the deathly still canal
waters on our final approach to La Isla De Las Muñecas
(Island Of The Dolls), a nagging sense of dread suddenly
grips Bizarre. Through the gnarled branches of the trees
that fringe the island, forlorn faces of what look like
lost children stare at us with dead eyes.

As
our boat drifts ever closer, we see that many of these
grubby infants are missing limbs, covered in cobwebs, or
crudely lashed to the boughs with rusted metal wires.
As our boat pulls alongside the shallow flight of steps
that leads onto the island, the roar of what sounds like
a chainsaw buzzing to life shatters the silence. We half
expect Leatherface to come hurtling towards us from the
wooden shack in the centre of the island, intent on
adding our heads to his macabre gallery of death.
Thankfully, the ‘chainsaw’ turns out to be a local
gardener who’s merely firing up his lawn mower behind
the ramshackle tool shed. But with hundreds of plastic
eyes following our every move, the sense of foreboding
that consumed us as we approached the island shows no
signs of abating, and gets steadily worse as we discover
the true horrors of Mexico City’s creepiest attraction.
Plastic Nightmare
The Island Of The Dolls – located in the vast,
bewildering network of canals that lies to the south of
Mexico
City, between the urban sprawl and the more traditional
farmland region called Xochimilco (pronounced so-chee-meel-koh
and meaning ‘place of flowers’) – is rich in history and
superstition.
Created by the hermit Don Julián Santana who, despite
having a wife and family, chose to live alone on the
island for over 50 years before his death in 2001, the
Island Of The Dolls is a shrine to a dead girl who was
said to haunt him, and in whose honour he collected
dolls, to calm her restless spirit.
“There are many stories about why the dolls are here,”
says Don Julián’s cousin, Anastasio, one of several
family members who now curate the island, welcome
visitors, and charge a token fee to take photos.
“Some people claim Don Julián was mad, and that he’d
fish dolls out of the canal believing they were real
children, and that he could nurse them back to life. But
the real story is that, soon after Don Julián arrived on
the island, he came to believe this place was haunted by
the spirit of a poor young girl who drowned in the
canal. So when he saw a doll floating past he took it
and put it on a tree, both to protect himself from evil
and make the dead girl happy. But one doll wasn’t
enough; soon Don Julián had made the entire island into
a shrine.”
For decades, Don Julián amassed a huge collection of
dolls that had been rejected by their owners, either
plucking them out of the canal as they bobbed past, or
scavenging toys from rubbish heaps on rare excursions
from his secluded home.
In later years, locals began to trade old dolls with Don
Julián in return for home-grown vegetables, and before
his death the hermit’s cadaverous collection covered
every inch of the island – each unloved toy receiving a
second lease of life as part of his surreal shrine.
The Rot
Sets In
Walking
around the tiny island, what’s most striking is how the
dolls have naturally decomposed over time, creating a
gallery of eerie and nightmarish faces.
As well as damage from the sun – which leaves many of
the dolls covered in bubbles, blotches and blisters –
the wind and rain have also left their mark, eroding any
surface paint and leaving behind pale, skull-like faces,
or gradually gnawing away the dolls’ fake hair to create
jagged tufts that make them look as if they’re suffering
from an agonizing wasting disease.
Many are also missing arms or legs – or have been given
the limb of another doll that clearly doesn’t match –
and even toys without heads are welcome on the island,
many strung from washing lines or shoved into the gaps
between branches, their exposed necks becoming a home
for the exotic spiders and insects that inhabit this
sprawling agricultural region.
