Are you ready to raise some hell?

The classic Okito Haunted Doll effect is back... with a vengeance... nightmarishly resurrected by Mark iNFiNiTi and Mark Traversoni.

The Effect

Ask your spectator to think of someone they don't like and explain that you can use black magic to seek some form of revenge. Any giggles will soon be drowned out by an eerie silence as you introduce a creepy coffin box. Inside... some sort of voodoo doll. Have this bizarre 'artifact' examined before placing it flat on your hand and instruct your spectator to imagine something bad happening to their victim of choice. All that's left to do is for them to stick the wooden pin into its heart to commence the dark spell. Under your control, the somewhat 'haunted' voodoo doll begins to rise... all on its own... right under your spectator's outstretched hand... until it's stood up straight looking them right in the eyes.

No wires, no threads, no magnets... a secret so devious they'll swear that black magic is real.

You can even place a glass over the doll to isolate it entirely, and, with a little practice and a steady hand even get it to stand on one leg before getting your spectator to blow him down and complete the curse.

PLEASE NOTE THAT, DESPITE ITS TWISTED REALISM AND THE REACTIONS OF YOUR AUDIENCE, HOODOO IS NOT REAL. IT DOESN'T REALLY BRING BAD LUCK AND NOBODY WILL BE HARMED. WE DON'T THINK ANYWAY...

However dark (or tame) of presentation you rest up on, Hoodoo is a shudder some effect that's incredibly easy to perform when you know the secret and always ready to go when you're feeling mischievous.
