On our very first crack at a Bewitched History Hour episode Krista brings y’all down to New Orleans. She’s definitely let the good times roll a few times over in the best city in the Bayou [100% Krista’s favorite city in the U.S.], but she also brings listeners up to speed on the real deal with New Orleans Voodoo and a touch of Haitian Vodou. 

A few misconceptions that really get Krista’s anger meter WAY up is that these Afro- Caribbean religions are one-in-the-same and that they have a reputation as being “bad,” “dark,” or “evil.” In this ep, you’ll learn that voodoo and similar religions like Santería are actually distinct religions and ways for practitioners to honor their ancestors and their roots and NO the voodoo doll did NOT come from Africa as you’ve likely been led to believe.
