Not books that are about the subjects, but books that involve the subjects mentioned.

Thank You

Try looking for books on Haitian folklore. Considering Voodoo is mainly Haitian in origin. Yes i do know that they were African slaves brought to Haiti and it came out of traditional beliefs and the pressing of Christian beliefs on them. Just saying that it may help to search for Haitian Voodoo books.
