Bokor

Bokors in the religion of Vodou are sorcerers or houngan (priests) or mambo (priestesses) for hire who are said to “serve the loa with both hands”, meaning that they practice both dark magic and light magic. Their black magic includes the creation of zombies and the creation of “ouangas”, talismans that house spirits.
