Voodoo Knife Block
On Saturday outside the waterfront Congregational church a protest is planned about the voodoo knife block. This may well be the first time that a religious organisation has gotten themselves involved in kitchen fashions - but a spokesperson for the church told me that “there is no place for the dark arts in knife storage”
The voodoo knife block has been around for a few years but in the last few months has grown in popularity and notoriety since its implication in a voodoo cures murder in Hove. A young girl had fallen out with her boyfriend one evening and the following morning when she was buttering her toast she decided to put a voodoo curse onto him as she replaced the knife into the voodoo knife block. That afternoon the young boy was crushed by a fridge as he walked along marine parade - the object fell from a second floor balcony of an unoccupied building.
The power of voodoo seems to able to be harnessed by the use of the knife block even by a person with very little knowledge of the actual mechanisms of the curse.
