Curse of the Voodoo Woman is a trip into a dark, zombie infested swamp that begins in a Voodoo Shop and ends in total darkness surrounded by hungry zombies.

The entrance is modeled after a real voodoo temple in New Orleans. A sign to one side has the Legba Vever symbol in the center surrounded by the text: "Voodoo Spiritual Temple, Priestess Marie Laveau."

Legba is loa of the crossroads — metaphysical as well as physical — and, as he guards the passageway between the visible world and the world of the other loa, he is always the first loa invoked, so he may open the way for the others. As "messenger of the loa" he is sometimes compared with the Greek Hermes (from whose name the term "Hermetic" comes).

Marie Laveau was considered to be the Queen of Voodoo. Voodoo dancing was alleged to have been performed at night in the backyard of her home on Rue Street. She filled the house with the paraphernalia of Voodoo sorcery, including snakes, roosters for sacrifices, and black cats. The belief in actual zombies was not as strong in New Orleans as in Haiti, but the term Zombi was certainly used in rituals, as evidenced by Marie Laveau's snake whose name (spoken in a Caribbean French patois) was Li Grand Zombi.

Entry to the Temple is granted to those who ring the doorbell. An old woman opens the door and invites each group in. The interior of the temple is dim. Shelves line the walls and they are filled with strange artifacts, bottles, boxes and small bags. Labels on some reveal their contents: Magnetic Sand, Pyrite, Nutmeg, Goofer Dust, Angelica Root, Devil Pod, Chinese Horn Nut, Dragon's Blood, Five Finger Grass, Graveyard Dirt, Job's Tears, Queen Elizabeth Root, Red Pepper, Rue, Salt, Sulphur, Bluestone, Buckeye Nut, Lodestone, Bluestone, Rabbit's Foot, Rattlesnake Skin, Rattlesnake Rattles, Badger Tooth, Alligator Tooth, and Alligator Foot.

The rest of the story will have to be experienced in person. Be warned that the goal here is to scare you senseless, so don't expect to run into Bambi or Snow White in that swamp.
