I personally crush up a whole bunch of those Spree candy tablets, and make some of the most colorful dust. Then I grab a whole bunch of it in my hand, say a prayer, and blow it all over the object of my desire (or a replica of). Seems to get results in three days.
Q:
Is it recommended to buy tickets in advance or can we just drop by?
A:
You can just drop by. It’s a tiny “museum”. If it’s busy, you just wait a few minutes for people to walk through and leave, so you can see the displays.
Q:

You need to stop by a shop and have them make your Gris-gris bag. Voodoo Authentica at 612 rue Dumaine is great.
