  • Summary

  • Daphne explains the origin of Papa Legba in relation to Haitian Vodou, Dominican Vodou, Winti and Louisiana Voodoo. Papa Legba is believed to be the gatekeeper who serves as the intermediary between God and humanity. These roots are derived from religious beliefs that span different cultures. He speaks all languages and has no evil intentions. We hope you enjoy this one which is a little off the beaten path for us but sometimes we need a break from murder and mayhem. Although there is some mayhem, because there always has to be.
