Being possessed, it turns out, is exhausting work. Just ask Mambo Edeline St. Armand. While popular culture portrays Vodou as full of curses and sticking pins into little dolls, the religion has in fact played a central role in Haitian cultural identity since the country's birth, a result of the New World's first and only successful slave rebellion. Since Brooklyn is home to the largest Haitian population outside of Haiti, we sent Thomas Morton into our own backyard to witness the realities of being possessed by Vodou's multitude of rowdy, rum-thirsty spirits.

Voodoo did NOT originate from Haiti. Voodoo started in Benin, West Africa. Get your facts together. There is already enough false information out there regarding west African religions.
Milani Michell I read a book on vudu by someone named Alvardo, that vudu is originally from many countries around Africa. The black folks taken for slaves were taken from the country Yoruba, after they landed in the states, yoruban vudu was introduced to America. I visited Mexico a few years ago; i got some supplies from a botánica, did some magic when i was there. WOW - THAT KICKED BUTT!!!!!! On October 31st, i made an offering to Santisma de Muerte, she came to me in my sleep and spoke with me. She is so sweet and kind! I never practiced any form of vudu, santería, balboa, etc., that was the first. Well... i just wanted to share that with you, you seem pretty knowledgeable about the subject.
Thank you I'm from benin
Milani Michell They tought us in school it started in Hati
@@kash8047 they taught you wrong it originates from Africa, now you know
Milani Michell thank you for enlightening these colonizers ancestors who hide behind the corporation called “Vice”.they want to call us ;African descendants, devils when they were the ones who enslaved us with the guise of Christianity !
*sis smoked 2 cigarette’s backwards. she is truly an icon*
no: In Santeria, you often see people putting the cherry end of a cigar into their mouths so that they can blow smoke out the other side. I think that is what she was doing.
It wasn't her. It was Ghede.😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@WashingtonDC20032 exactly..but these nincompoops wouldn't know that..
Eugene Murphy lmao right.
9 years later and This is still just as interesting. This topic is never explored enough
this one leaves me with more questions than answers..
Its like dancing the music makes ur muscles so strong u flex them so hard and u get so strong by that thats a reason africans are so physical strong u flex ur muscles over many hours
The music makes ur body move automaticly
But u flexing ur muscles as strong as u can the hole time all ur muscles are so hard flexed u build muscles from that
Voodoo started in Africa by the way. Im saying this as a Haitian woman who knows her history. Thank you and good day.
You are totally correct voodo started in Africa, to say otherwise is paramount to utmost ignorance.
I thought that they said that in the video... how it was people from Haiti trying to practice their African religion
yes im.hatitan to and it bothers me when people say hatiains. created voodoo
+Naej Jean , well sorry there are morons like "lu" which herself is apparently Haitian believes Haitian created voodoo. Any attempt to convince her that, she is wrong is a futile exercise in itself.
+hjoseph777 awe still resulting to name calling are we ...how juvenile . Don't reference me if you can't tag me in your comment makes you seem like a coward
Not sure why Vice would put out a video like this. I find it offensive that this "reporter" would overlay his snarky comments about corny twerking, etc when these people were open enough to let him come into view their rituals. Tying their religion to a promo for a horror movie is also offensive. Voodoo is a very old religion, did not originate from Haiti and is not a joke. Vice should be ashamed for putting this garbage out.
get over yourself
Damn right. Very rude.

My mom had a doll she called juju. Just weeks before she passed birds kept flying into her RV window. I counted 6 in the first hour I was there. I said nothing and she kept saying she has no clue why they do it. But had a smile on her face and it freaked me out.
She had better connect with nature than most humans it seems. We are all one and connected
Sounds like she didn't make it to true salvation if any sorcery was still happening up until her passing. You should keep praying for her in hopes that her punishment ended at either Limbo or Purgatory. If she is in a place below that though, there's no coming back and everything is eternally finalized. Hopefully, she made it though and you'll be reunited with her and Christ. God bless.

Regardless of your opinion on her lifestyle choices .. keep your disrespectful mouth shut.

All these replies are pretty racist
@@hayhayjkjk8395 racist
@acammtt , you still a king brother
Having been to Haiti, invited to a Vodou pilgrimage in the caves of the Central Plateau, this video is insulting to Vodou. I agree with Nicky R that Haitian Vodou was brought from West Africa (esp. Benin), combined with Taino spirituality and Roman Catholicism. It honors Nature and the ancestors. I was honored to have been embraced by several Mambos who understood my own respect for the ancestors; my Viking/Celt heritage honoring Nature and ancestors, too, is not so dissimilar. There is a way to report with respect, and VIce: you did a poor job. You made this into an "exotic" farce for a white audience, and that is reprehensible.
Is u slow I’m pretty sure u don’t know about the black doll in Haiti I’m Haitian ur not Ik say from stuff then u and all the stuff u said is wrong if u not Haitian just stay in yo line

Honestly I’d love to be part of Vice and shine light more into history and people instead of just trying to get good shots. I feel this video could’ve been more and actually expressing their emotions and healing with these rituals. Spirituality can be through many different forms. I feel as a interviewer it’s up to them to shine the light and use their voice to show the viewers 🤷🏽♀️‼️
Shine light on what? Retards acting possessed by spirits?
Jesus christ is the true king and them spirits are demons ✝️
girl this is all demonic stuff. im from haiti and I've seen DARK stuff come out of voodoo. when i hear outsiders and white people talk about voodoo as if its some beautiful and amazing thing i shake my head. if only you knew how many people in my area where i lived in haiti died due to voodoo. I've seen a woman put a spirit onto a close neighbor of mine that led him to running off and killing himself in less than 5 minutes. i've seen so many things and it could be a very scary thing.
@@michaelangelo5537 AMEN all of this stuff is demonic!!!
Everything they’re doing is demonic…you don’t get possessed by spirits

john kaleb exactly!!!
how would you describe it?
"All cleansed" = all possessed
As a christian i would be scared because summoning spirits can be very dangerous. What happends if a bad spirit will posses you? 😱😱
Voodoo didn't start in Haiti, it originates from Benin (Dahomey) West Africa.
The Mark of Buddha and then it went to Haiti? why couldn't they have thought of it at the same time or
something like that? I'm curious.
Africans always wanna take credit for American/western blacks things hush 🤫
Miss So Opinionated ...so where did it originate?
What you say is not all wrong, but here is the truth, in Africa our ancestors pray to different spirits, but it was not defined or clear. Haitian people we defined it, name them give the LWA a face, they look very similar to catholic saints because Haitians were forced to worship those saints so we put our Lwa behind them, so everytime a Haitian slave kneeled in front of the virgin, that slave was actually praying to ezili. So yeah sure it started in Africa, but Haitians defined it. Haitians are africans too, soo. Btw I am Haitian
Mr130792 | but there’s also voodoo in other countries with African ancestry, like Surinam. It definitely originated from africa and was continued where the slaves were brought.
We always look to others to tell our history. And what do they do? Portray us as something different.
That happens to anyone who isn't from a certain culture tho. Not saying that it aint wrong but nobody is exempt from this. I can't tell you how many times something German was portrayed somewhere and it was straight up untrue, but that's how people are
@Reggie Thomas Its the same like with any other belief tho, some may think like that but others don't. There are many variations to one thing , especially religions and cultures
Uh. Yes there are white ppl that practice Vodoun. And Santeria and Palo as well. Just like there are black ppl that practice Wicca and Ceremonial Magic. God doesn’t care about skin color. That’s a human thing.
Nonsense. Divine Mother couldn’t care less about anyone’s skin color. I’ve been Her devotee for my entire life. Stop mixing your human racism with God.
How do you learn hoodoo or voodou?
She says the demon takes over and makes her a totally different person who just passes out and wakes up later forgetting what she did. You think it might be the bottle of alcohol she said she drank lol.
This is madness
What an amazing bit of footage

+TommySnoB SBDC here is a layman explanation even +lu will understand, your ancestors are they Europeans or Africans ? if your answer is African then albeit you are Haitian the difference could rightly be blamed on colonialism, nevertheless there are still more in common because both roots remained the same.
+julio franck tsasse nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo its all over Africa....
THis has zero to do with the devil or Satan worhship, dispite the misleading title. Also, the word "Voudun" comes from west Africa. It did not originate in Haiti.

@@tatumergo3931 in her case she did because she wasn’t a smoker or drinker. And my family did use cigars I never said they used cigarettes plus people use whatever they can get.
I am from Jamaica and I really don't like the title and I don't like the message that this is sending about devil worshipping or whatsoever we as African people needs to understand that spirituality was apart of us until 1611 when they start to whip us to accept Jesus as our Lord and savior I hate all these people who try to degrade our African customs if it wasn't for voodoo black people would still be in chain people hate what they don't understand and fear what they can't conquer
I am from Africa and YOU are talking nonsense! As you said you Jamaican so speak for your Jamaican people not us! Satanic witchcraft devil worshiping nonsense is not part of me or my African culture. Slavery is also not in my DNA. My ancestors where Kings and Queens that couldn't be touched! Those that got caught and became slaves turned bitter and are messed up and try to make it bad for all of us real Africans so again DO NOT CLAIM YOU AFRICAN when in reality you Jamaican or Black American or what ever.... we very very veeeery different

+Lülo Borio I kinda wished it was true!
+Lülo Borio Here, I'll make it longer for you... I got cursed with Santeria Voodoo this past year, as I hit 40 (still very dependent on family for support, was really just my mom that didn't have it in her to throw me out to the streets). But I stopped trying to live up to her expectations of me, even threatened self defense against her as she paid off people to harass and make me miserable in the apartment she was letting me live in. Apparently, that's what she was waiting for, so they could have me bakeracted, scrambling my brain and taking my gun rights away. Apparently, i had given them permission to read my thoughts (DON'T EVER GIVE ANYBODY ANY RIGHTS OVER YOU, CAUSE THEY CAN DO STUFF TO YOU WITHOUT YOUR EVEN KNOWING), which they then hired a shaman to write down. In fact, the book gathering could be found in the astral realm (was found by almost two dozen psychics I had been to in the past 20+ years, only two of them were the type you go pay for a reading, the rest were close friends), but one needed to know the password to gain access. I'm not sure if it's still there, the book, the gathering. They say it isn't and that any which go looking for it will just end up harmed, but they might be lying. They threatened to kill all my old friends they didn't approve of (scared my exgf away by making her hear voices for a few minutes) and isolated me into another home where I'm surrounded by people interested in serving their agenda. None of my old friends they threatened will speak to me. They even threatened to kill me with bloodclot if i keep rejecting them. Even my dead grandpa is involved, as he started the curse when I was 6. They tried to get me to join, train me to be a part of their cult, but I couldn't get past the first part, denouncing God. Yes, they act as if they're good people, influential in the community, but I don't know, sacrificing chickens and having people denounce God to collects souls doesn't sound at all good to me. They keep trying to get me to denounce God, in all sorts of ways. They even managed to get the TV to start talking to me, without swaying from it's existence (what was already recorded), i mean that, as I struggled with my thoughts of what I should do, flipping the channel, whatever was on TV told me exactly what was up. I could go on for hours about this crap, even had an old friend killed by Haitian Voodoo witches, which I guess he had sort of raped, or something. I don't know about all this ancestral worship stuff, as much as I loved my grandpa, he was abusive, not an entity I would like to pray to and depend on, then again, my mom, dad, and grandma are no better, probably worse. And what of these other alien, other dimensional entities which could be affecting/influencing us? I pray to God, but it's like, I made my bed, so I've got to sleep in it, must make MY way to Him if I truly expect any help from Him to come thru (you know, not many can speak with Him directly, there's always someone in between), so I repent, trying to stop smoking pot, and other unhealthy vices. Focusing on my health which is falling apart. At least they're still willing to help me keep my teeth. It's a love/hate kinda thing, I guess. Remember what I said in ALL CAPS above, but shit, I've been warned over two dozen times about what I should remember, and I've failed every test they've thrown at me. I basically wake up every day now, not really wanting to live. It appears as if I can never really have any friends or sexual partners, unless it fits their agenda. I feel they're trying to rape me, having sent a couple women in my direction, God knowing, who really is inside that woman. It's freaking sick. All sorts of memories of past sexual abuse started to come to surface.
+Don'tNeedYaWholeLifeStory Why would you wish it to be true and how protected are you to not feel that it isn't? Ignorance is bliss. Don't forget. Cause the day a shaman or witch targets you with this stuff, you'll wish you never knew the truth, they're evil (biting a chicken's head off can't be good), while acting to be good. 6:04 Thomas Morton is absolutely brainwashed to say that it's not bad. I'm sure a group of evil people could show anyone a good time. lol Freaking idiots.

+cindy Queen yea you are right cause they don't really know what they are talking about.
Leo Tognon People have been conditioned to think of african religions as inherently evil. It's a racist ideology, really.
As a native of Benin, it's weird to read some comments especially from some Africans who only know Google. And I think it's better for them to keep quiet.
+Leo Tognon Hi. I too have noticed how so many Africans view the traditional religions and belief systems not as the aofrememtioned..but juju or witchcraft. Since you are a native of Benin, how long do you think this perception of witchcraft and fear of it and anything non-christian came from? Aside from European colonization, are you aware if this fear of these practices existed before or are they because of European contact???
+Amor That fear has started when some evil-intentioned people have started using some traditional rites to perpetrate bad things such as killing... because of their ego.
And that fear is being increased strongly not only by European colonization but also by brain-westernization of us (Africans).

@Tingles from Tansy it's not a matter of thinking for yourself.. This voodoo is no difference than being filled with the Holy Spirit. I am simply saying that The Holy Spirit is the most powerful spirit. Why choose a lesser power?
@@brandonkelly7602 Because the children of the devil hate God they don't do it because they don't know anybody they do intentionally trying to position themselves To fool others
Funny the same thing happens at church 😂🤷♀️but it’s called the holy spirit and talking in tongues instead
Ashante Samuels they got Jesus’ spirit in them tho not these random ppl smoking cigarettes and carrying on
C J same thing my sisa. But a different name and way to go about it😌🌺
C J Talking in tongues and catching the "Holy Spirit" is not biblical at all. Christianity is not at all what you think it is. The European hide their beliefs and old religions into what you call Christianity today.
Jay Belafonte it’s biblical
C J Yes being possessed by a Unclean Spirit is biblical... Which is what you are seeing, an that has nothing to do with "Jesus". You have been lied too
Lol. They sent the most awkward host into the lion’s den
u mean a smelly ratchet den lol
@@h.s3223 I'm Haitian and ik it smells good there, we use perfume and clean clothes for these practices you don't know us like that
Ignore them they don’t know what they are talking about and probs just want to be a troll by disrespecting others
I love the enthusiasm that the young have for producing stuff about things that are old for those of us who have lived over 50. There is so much on this topic and real voodoo is an of shoot of another belief system. Most of the so called voodoo these days is all about money. Same as everything. Great work to the production team though.
Im just turning into a grumpy old man i guess. Haha
That Thumbnail with the cigarettes 🚬 the wrong way is crazyyyy 😂
Im half Dominican and i was raised not to look or talk down on the Haitians just because of their religion , i dont really follow anything but my family in the Dominican Republic often reminds me that this was their way of rebelling against the white man the only way to escape the norms that were forced onto them and to remember that the reason we pray to the god we pray to was because it was forced upon us and we should be proud that our haitian cousins have some sort of individuality and had the strength to reject that .
Thank you for referring to hatians as cousins. A lot of Dominicans don't claim hatians 😥❤️
Im dominican and that’s not true…Dominicans are super racist against them and don’t see them s as a cousin
theses spirits are very powerful and should not be messed with. i grew up in a church and i know how these spirits manifest themselves in people's lives. the devil only came to do 3 things; steal, kill, and destroy.
faithbabyx hail Satan
Lol nah devil come to misguide
That’s right 3 things 😔

“Summoning the same fiery spirits that helped the Haitian slaves overthrow their French masters”
And today Haiti is a failed state hellscape where warlords and cannibalism has made a come back. Good job guys.
Anyone knows the classic black and white documentary of voodoo used in the video??
We all have physical bodies, but we are not the physical bodies.
wise words mickey mouse
We are spiritual beings having a human experience, not human beings having a spiritual experience
The physical body is just the frame....

lol
I love to watch other cultures stories👍👍
I respect all religions n their cultures🙏🙏🙏
Bro said he gotta get those calories in by any means 😂
Voodoo is no crazier than any other religion currently in existence. They all have their ridiculous rituals and ignorant dogma. Nobody that identifies with a religion is immune to ridicule from people of other faiths.
How do you define "religion"?
Their is no real "Atheism" in existence. Everybody believes in something. Some in God, others in Allah... today, most of the people believe in money. The capitalism became a ersatz religion. To be honest... I like this crazy black chick more than capitalists, who are wrecking our mother earth.
VicenteValtjer You are wrong. an atheist is someone that do not believe in a higher power, a deity. Money does not count as a deity.
Dennis Mortensen But we believe that there's no god. We can't prove it, but we're sure of it..
Adam
You're wrong. Atheist does not 'believe' there is no god. An atheist just doesn't believe there is one. They don't subscribe to any deities.
Dennis Mortensen Anything can be a god. The word god (at least biblically) implies main leader. So in that context ,yes, money can be a god. Many Americans worship money. Atheist actually worship self. So they are their own god as humans in their mind are the highest power. The biblical God has a name, YHWH. His name is not God. That is a translation error.
Who tf gave him his information f
She's such a nice woman... amazing personality 👌
I would love to go to a service of the Orisha temple. It reminds me of Kali Mandirs in Guyana and Trinidad n’ Tobago. I would love to attend an Orisha temple one day.
No Mom I did not smoke illegal marijuana, that was Ghasha, it possessed me. Ghasha is addicted to marijuana...
Yeah right, I'd like to see a stoner do this shit. It probably was PCP, don't drag the Herb into this.
Pray to Gasha and ask for Pot to be legal
EH CBunny Colorado must have some pretty good Voodoo priests.
You would have to be a mental dwarf to become addicted to marijuana, because there is no physical abstinence. However in some individuals with a weaker mentality, psychological abstinence COULD be observed. Your non- existent argument is invalid and joke was terrible, takes 2 seconds to think of it, not the least bit original. I'd rate it 4/10.
Shano Mein I know you can't get addicted to marijuana, that's what makes the joke better. Welp darn I only got a 4/10... Hopefully I'll have better luck next time judge Judy of the internet.
As a haitian who grew up attending these types of voodoo ceremonies all I have to say to those of you saying racist/ignorant shit is there are some things that you just can't explain and that you have to witness/experience. I choose not to be an avid practitioner but I still acknowledge what happens at these parties.
KISS the albinos, don't SACRIFICE the albinos.
I avoided Macumba in brasil but it is widespread.
@3:27 when she sprayed him in the face. He was not ready!! Lmao
This is crazy and disturbing at the same time 😳
“Horner version of tweaking.”Man your level of disrespect is of the roof
I think they took that part out, i cant find it anymore.
@@ourshit5725 it’s still there I’m watching it now
do you remember when you bite that chicken? who? I ain't bite no chicken 😂😂😂😂😂😂
shakiella achee I love how she says “who” 😂
😭😂😭
that shit had me 💀
I remember biting the chicken .....I had the same reaction .... everybody at Popeye's knew I was hungry
Your comment all the way down here was very much needed. Now I can continue to read all this chaos
Bro that black Virgin Mary looked like some kid from a dodgy discord server drew it
This is absolutely beautiful
Voodoo is one thing I refuse to mess around with. When I was in college there was a guy who played around with a Voodoo staff then had a stroke and died a few days later. You can say that's just a coincidence, but idk...
I honestly think playing with spirits is praying for death
ok, but why did this have to go along with an ad for devil's due? and you wondered why people give it a bad rep?
I was thinking the same thing......
I wish I could get her to help with my court case coming up...
Nice video about Haitian Vodou, a lot of dancing and singing in the religion.
Thomas must really have an interesting life, he's been with Vice for like three years ( I think) He's hung out with cocaine addicts in Netherlands and spent some time with West African truckers, and now he gets to put Voodoo rituals to his list of things done. In some ways, I admire him for all the shit he goes through to show us what's going on around the world.
First off Miami has the largest population of Haitians 🇭🇹 in the USA ..trust me In a cab with one right now
Did you see Kodak?
What's your point? You began with "First off", what's second off? I thought you were going to say something valid.
Vanico Asomugha flooded in immoklee fl

He said to me sis everything will be fine and you will live and peaceful and fruitful live
And it all came to pass
Thank you my brother Dr okans
His on Facebook
Him :do you remember biting the chicken head
Her: who??? No I ain bite no chicken😂💀💀
😂the white boi should've know better bc he could've became a zombie, like if you what I'm talking about , don't let anyone blow something in your face
Eric Scott what do you mean? I peeped it and figured it was probably significant but I doubt understand what happened.
That rum being sprayed in his face, was a blessing from the spirit. They do that. Now if someone tries to blow powder on you, you should run!
Isnt zombie used as a punishment ?
It doesn't work that way. Zombie powder can be made at home. I'll tell you the main ingredient is Datura. But I'm not saying more than that because I'd rather not have people hurt themselves. It puts someone in a coma like state, and slows breathing so they appear to be dead. But they are alive, in some hellish nightmare, unable to think or speak like a regular person, and it makes a person like a frightened dog or traumatized child who has dissociated. It's dangerous.
Just like a serpent and a rainbow
this was filmed like new season of AHS,its disrespectful...
Cuz it's stupidly funny 🤔
@Kimmminem West this is the point. A documentary should not be filmed in the style of a TV show
Why did I get emotional when they started dancing I wanted to cry
It is within you.
I'm very curious as to where the older documentary footage used in this comes from
"Divine Horsemen" documentary
