House of Voodoo

Fun spot to check out on interesting souvenirs too! In the heart of NOLA and on the way to beignets! It represents the city life here with the items offered.

I was in the Voodoo Blues store and purchased some pull over sweatshirts XL. I like XL because they fit loosely and they are comfortable. These were made incorrectly or marked wrong. Not just mine, but the entire rack and in all colors. I know because I tried to exchange it, but they all had the same issue. When I went to put the shirt on I got my arms in and then could not get it on over my head. It was way to small. They have an "All sales Final" policy they are using to get away with selling junk to tourists. So I am out $35.00 and stuck with a shirt I now do not want to wear even if I could get it on. It burns me that they probably don't even have that many returns since most people don't figure out that they have just been ripped off until they get back home, and that is likely out of state. Also, I went back not 24 hours later with receipt in hand. The cashier said the policy was on the receipt but it was so faded she couldn't find it. Then a manager showed up and he knew where it was on the receipt so he showed me the barely readable policy. Then they put up a sign reading all sales final that had not been there 2 minutes earlier. So here is hoping you get back all the Voodoo that you do!

This place is a true representation​ of what to expect while visiting NOLA. When you walk in you can feel the place pull you in I am not going to say that this is stuff that I have around my life but wanted to pay my respects to see another way of life in a culture practiced by many. I would not want to label all I had seen but some did blow my mind. I have only seen a place like this in movies or TV shows. I kid you not I felt like Vampires and Ghosts could be near and I can't say that I pay any mind. We enjoyed stopping in and being in awww of such trinkets and can appreciate the history of NOLA and how this is a way of life for most that live here. I would recommend stopping in and looking around.

Was pricey check out the shops on the out skirts of the French district, better prices and just as good of stuff

I have no frame of reference what so ever in terms of voodoo paraphernalia slinging establishments, so as far as I'm concerned, this is it. Lots of weird trinkets and off the wall stuff that the voodoo lover in your life would appreciate. I left with a voodoo doll for my desk.

T-shirts, masks & posters! They have a huge selection for tourists and locals alike. Plus, they are super friendly. This is one of the best places to get lots of cool Mardi Gras items for you and your visitors!

I love this shop. The candles the magic spells and the jewelry all about magic and voodoo is amazing. I love looking at alters and talking with the shop owners. It's definitely a must while in New Orleans

Very cool place. Lots to see. Very small place though but overall a five bucks entry fee was totally worth it.

Definitely touristy but I liked it. I bought some beignet mix for a friend, and my hubby bought a few bottles of hot sauce for a friend. They've got all the touristy things you'll need including Tees, masks, beads, posters, keychains, gater meat sticks, etc.

I just gotta say; the store is adorable with tons of cute stuff. But if you want one of their physic readings--turn back. My friends and I paid fifty dollars EACH for 30 minute sessions with the physic that resides behind a curtained door.Each of our's lasted well under thirty minutes, the longest going for fifteen.The physic was a gimmick. We all got similar futues (successful, relationship in your twenties, your smart). She asked so many questions her assessments of me were just reiterations. I think my favorite part was when she asked me my birthday, changed the conversation, and around five minutes later closed her eyes and touched her forehead, then opened them with a look of realization on her face and said, "you're a virgo!!!""If you want your physique read go to one on the streets! We did this later in the day when we were drunk enough to take another bargain. If you catch a street physic in a good mood, they will cut you a bargain. On Jackson square we got tarot card and our palms read for 30 each (I tipped the woman ten because of how accurate the reading was). The palm reading was fantastic; but pay extra for the tarot cards. Tarot cards can't really be messed up, and chances our their results will satisfy you. So, yeah, steer clear of house of voodoo if you wanna know your future, but walk right up to the stands that look like a rip off.
