If you're an horror fan, you recognised Child's Play's famous voodoo spell.
A classic movie moment.
Here's the opening of the very first movie:
(well, the important part only)
With those words, Charles Lee Ray transferred his soul into a Chucky doll.
Oh, you noticed it isn't the exact same words as above? That's because this is the human-to-object voodoo ritual.
The one above was the opposite, object-to-human transfer.
"Ade due damballa. Give me the power I beg of you.
Secoise entienne mais pois de morte.
Morteisma lieu de vocuier de mieu vochette.
Endonline pour de boisette damballa!
Secoise entienne mais pois de morte.
Endelieu pour de boisette damballa!
Endelieu pour de boisette damballa!
Endelieu pour de boisette damballa! "
What kinda language is that?
It may come out as french for non-french speakers, but it is in fact an old form of Haitian Creole.
Which fans translated to:
"To the almighty Damballa, give me the power I beg of you!
To the mercy of my soul.
To the point of my death.
Hear me out of from my condemned voice."
The movie's mythos is based on old Haitian Voodoo religion-legends.
And Damballa is a snake-god, to whom Chucky asks and begs to help him save his soul.
Trivia Eyz, a trivia a day~
I really enjoy voodoo but the karma..............
