The term Voodoo doll is commonly employed to describe an effigy into which pins are inserted. Although it comes in various different forms, such practices are found in the magical traditions of many cultures across the world. Heloise Laveau, for example, used such a doll when she fought against Absinthe Van Gothen in the Lone Fir Cemetery. But, besides the handheld object that allows for painful curses, some of the more powerful practitioners, like Heloise, can make life-sized dolls and animate them. Ultimately, this is the same type of shadow magicks employed to create golems. In this case, they sew together cloth to make the doll and rather than stuff it with stuffing, they fill it with shadow magic. The doll is completely mindless and acts in any way the creator desires. Abby fought these voodoo dolls while trying to rescue the Night Stalkers, Arion and Ayana Bishop, and collect souls for Baron Samedi. | The term Voodoo doll is commonly employed to describe an effigy into which pins are inserted.
