The Voodoo Doll Museum
online Gallery of Magickal Dolls, Poppets, Fetiches, and
Ritual Effigies is the only museum in the world devoted
exclusively to historic and contemporary Voodoo dolls
and other ritual dolls. The Voodoo Doll Museum presents
a provocative perspective on the impact of magic
and Voodoo on daily life through active educational and
curatorial programming. It is the mission of the Voodoo
Doll Museum to advance the public understanding of
Voodoo dolls and doll magick across cultures and
throughout time as represented by the Museum’s
collection.
The Voodoo Doll Museum
was founded in 2010 by Denise Alvarado as a natural
extension of the two books she has authored on the
subject, Voodoo Dolls in Magick and Ritual and
The Voodoo Doll Spellbook: A Compendium of
Ancient and Contemporary Spells and Rituals. The
museum is virtual at this point in time. Specimens are
being acquired sufficient for the opening of a physical
museum, which is the ultimate goal.
The Voodoo Doll
Museum's collections include 11 galleries and a growing
article base. While still in its infancy, the Voodoo
Doll Museum proudly accepts its position as the
preeminent museum and educational authority for the
study of Voodoo dolls and magical dolls in the world.
