The first guide and spell book for modern witches on how to bring the renowned Marie Laveau's spiritual heritage to life.

The Marie Laveau Voodoo Grimoire is a practical guide to New Orleans-style magic inspired by the life and traditions of Marie Laveau—the eternal and enduring Queen of New Orleans Voodoo. This is a working grimoire, or spell book, created for the modern witch and Conjure worker. It provides formulas and recipes for solving the problems of daily living and enhancing quality of life using the Laveau Voodoo tradition.

More than just a collection of spells, The Marie Laveau Voodoo Grimoire contains tips and recommendations for improving one's spell-crafting skills and living a magical, spiritual life. The author draws upon her own Creole heritage to bring this unique and regional style of magic to the greater public in a clear and accessible way. Formulas include:

  • Controlling Powder: A simple recipe that can be made at a moment's notice to influence someone to act in your favour.
  • Follow Me Boy Conjure Oil: According to oral tradition, this recipe was created by Marie Laveau. Originally designed for prostitutes, this recipe has money, love, and protection herbs incorporated in it. This blend is favoured for its power to attract, seduce, and enthral.

Alvarado teaches readers everything from stone, root, and bone magick to ritual oils and spells for healing, protection, love, beauty, banishing, and much more.
