Exploring the Dark Side: Hot Voodoo Dolls

A hot voodoo doll is a highly unconventional and controversial object associated with the practice of voodoo magic. Voodoo itself is a religion and a cultural practice that originated in West Africa and was brought to the Americas through the transatlantic slave trade. In voodoo, practitioners believe that they can harness the power of spirits and deities to influence events and people's lives. One common ritual involves the creation and use of voodoo dolls, which are believed to represent individuals on whom practitioners wish to have an effect. Traditionally, voodoo dolls are made of fabric or cloth, often resembling human figures. These dolls are then infused with personal belongings or elements belonging to the person they are meant to represent, such as hair, nails, or clothing.

Our collection of VooDoo costumes are increasingly popular for Halloween. We have men's voodoo costumes and ladies voodoo costumes in all shapes and sizes and in a range of types, both sexy and scary.

What s more enticing than a powerful witch doctor or priestess who lives openly in the city, manipulating voodoo dolls to make people do their bidding with one hand and handing out potions to bend someone s broken heart with the other. For instance, while the Marie Laveau costume might be a history buff s first choice, the voodoo skeleton costume featuring a sleek jumpsuit is unique and sexy.

These dolls are then infused with personal belongings or elements belonging to the person they are meant to represent, such as hair, nails, or clothing. The doll becomes a vessel for the person's spirit or essence, and whatever happens to the doll is believed to happen to the person as well. A hot voodoo doll takes this concept to another level.

Hot voodoo doll

I didn't see any post on this, and I can't find this on any website in the US. Here is a link to the only website I found this on:

Here is the product description:

You ask a spectator to to turn around. The spectator can feel exactly where you treat the doll, because the place will become hot.

The doll shown in the video is greater. You will receive an approx. 6 cm large doll.

The video demo shows Chris Angel approaching a girl and showing her his voodoo doll. She turns away and he starts burning the voodoo doll hand. Her hands starts feeling like it is burning. She then takes the voodoo doll, turns around, and sticks a needle in the doll. He starts bleeding from that spot.

Does anyone know anything about this? It seems awfully suspicious to me. I can't imagine how he is causing a spectators hand or foot to feel like it is burning.

I ordered this trick a year ago from Germany. It's a very easy but very, very scary trick.

I received an extra call from the dealer for the dangerous reason of that trick.
But if you do exact what is do - everything is safe.

I know a performer who actually got a nasty burn/wound from that stuff. It doesn't do anything to me. It seems to affect people differently from nothing to third degree burns.

I agree with Gitty. I also have this, and it's a very powerful experience for the spectator. It can be dangerous, so it's important to use it the right way.

Really? It can cause a participant a serious burn? Didn't anyone think.. oh, I don't know. BAD IDEA?

Seems like a bit of a gamble .

I agree that this is a gamble, as there is a huge variation in the sensation felt. Depending on the way it is performed, and as you saw in the CA video, if the spectator gets a feeling of being badly burned, he or she can end up wanting to kick your *** (which he or she may proceed to do, so be careful)!

Anything where you risk injuring the spectator , however slight that may be, should in my opinion be an automatic no no.

I agree, which is why I require spectators to sign a disclaimer prior to this particular performance. It is a dangerous effect.

Really? You think a "disclaimer" will protect you? What could it possibly say: "I might chemically burn you?"

Get real. No disclaimer will help you (other than to show you acted intentionally). In fact, the "disclaimer" may put you into an extremely weak position should you get taken to court.

Are you that lighting-flashpaper-on-a-spectator's-tongue guy?

A disclaimer has protected me successfully in the past. In putting together the disclaimer, I hired legal counsel to ensure the validity of the contract when a spectator wishes to see something of this nature, albeit not often. Nonetheless, it is still something I consider necessary before performing this.

The term "hot" in this context refers to the intense and intentional use of energy and intention by the practitioner. It involves the practitioner actively channeling their energy and focusing their intentions towards the doll for a desired effect. While the exact methods and practices vary among voodoo practitioners, the act of "heating" a voodoo doll involves invoking spirits, reciting incantations, and directing intense energy and intentions towards the doll. This is often done in ritual ceremonies, where practitioners may enter a trance-like state to establish a connection with the spirits they believe can empower the doll's effects. The idea behind a hot voodoo doll is to intensify the desired outcome and to convey the practitioner's intentions with a greater impact. It is believed that the heat generated by the practitioner's energy and focus can amplify the connection between the doll and the person it represents, thereby increasing the effectiveness of the desired outcome, which can range from love or healing to revenge or cursing. It is important to note that voodoo, including the practice of using voodoo dolls, is a widely misunderstood and misrepresented aspect of a complex religious and cultural tradition. Voodoo is often portrayed negatively in popular culture, associating it with harmful or malevolent intentions. However, many practitioners see voodoo as a means of healing, empowerment, and connecting with the spiritual world. In conclusion, a hot voodoo doll is a voodoo doll that has been intentionally infused with intense energy and intention by a practitioner. By harnessing the energy of spirits and directing it towards the doll, practitioners believe they can amplify the effects and influence events or people's lives. It is important to approach the topic of voodoo with respect and understanding, recognizing its cultural and religious significance beyond the common misunderstandings in popular culture..
