INTERVIEWS


Interview on WitchTalk: Why Do We Pin the Doll?


Denise Alvarado, who grew up in New Orleans, draws from a lifetime of recipes and spells learned from family, friends, and local practitioners. She traces the history of the African-based folk magic brought by slaves to New Orleans, and shows how it evolved over time to include influences from Native American spirituality, Catholicism, and Pentecostalism. She shares her research into folklore collections and 19th- and 20th- century formularies along with her own magical arts.

Denise Alvarado is going to tell us "why we pin the doll" and all about Hoodoo Voodoo and her new revised edition of her book.
