Voodoo is real. It is extension of the same supernatural powers that demons possess. It is nothing to mess with or glamorize. It cripples the user and the victim. It is much like war, there is no winner. And much like the Satan himself, unreliable.

Vodou is an African Traditional Religion (ATR). It origins come from various African tribes. It is a religion practiced in many countries. The most commonly know is Haiti. Vodou is also practiced in the United States, various parts of the Caribbean and in Africa.
In Vodou we honor our ancestors, work with lwa (the same as saints), and praise Bondye (God). Many think is is bad and evil. It a very beautiful religion that focuses on community, family, and togetherness. We believe in one God. The lwa are the intermediaries that are here to help us because God is busy maintaining the universe.
Voodoo dolls are not part of the Vodou religion at all. They were called as such because they became popular in New Orleans as a form of Hoodoo magic. In witchcraft it is called sympathetic magic.
Unless you know how to use sympathetic magic I would suggest leaving them alone. Research witchcraft or hoodoo if you really want to learn how to use the dolls.

oh my goodness, don't play with such things
that is serious.
and you do not seem intelligent enough to handle such things,
why? BECAUSE YOU ENTERTAIN THE THOUGHT OF SUCH NEGATIVE POWER,
I HAVE ONE QUESTION, O.K. WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT VOODOO?
what is it you might "try" AS YOU SAY WITH THEM?
Is it a power thing? To do what? To get where?
And why?
Wouldn't you say voodoo is a sort of religion, if you can stir up spirits, of supernatural, to serve a purpose?
If so, that is like praying, you are calling on unknown spirits from ???whereever,, not knowing what you are doing and how to do it,...right?
Well do you want to hurt someone? OR yourself?
Do you think evil thoughts, or loving thouthts?
i DO HOPE YOU ARE A LOVING PERSON, AND THINK OF LOVING DEEDS, AND EXPERIENCES,,
If this is true, why not subscribe to God, thru his son Jesus, for love, and protection, and most importand, the promise of heaven, and love beyond your imagination,
JUST BECAUSE GOD, VIA JESUS, DOES NOT DO TRICKS, MAGIC AND GIVE US WHAT WE ASK FOR WISH FOR LPRAY FOR AND WHINE FOR, DOES NOT MEAN YOU ARE NOT LOVED,
ok, WELL THE VODOO THING IS BAD IDEA,, SO FORGET IT, REJECT IT, be cool, and be good,
IT reminds me of the teens (you are probably one) I WAS ONE a long long time ago, but it is still the same, we teens would look to other sources for love, understanding, excitement, freedom, and we wanted things, to experience things,, etc,
so we would trust almost strangers who did not give a darn if we lived or died, and would not trust the knowledge, and experience of our own GOLD MINE, the family,,
don't turn to dark forces for a thrill, an experiment, or whatever, and IF YOU DO ,THIS MEANS YOU BELIEVE THAT SOMETHING COULD HAPPEN ...RIGHT?
yes it could, AND IT CAN ALSO HAPPEN WITH THE GOOD GUYS GOD, (YOUR REAL FAMILY AND HOPE)
good luck, throw the dolls away, and pick up the bible, or at least pick up your favorite stuffed animal, or toy your parents gave you, and embrace them and the good energy that they still have,

You are probably familiar with what is commonly called pop-voodoo, the stuff of novelty items and bad horror movies from the 1980's.

Just like any faith, if you truly believe it to be real, then it can be so very real. It's all about the power of the mind. Voodoo actually prays on this fact, fear is the hardest emotion to shake so some people can be very susceptible to it.

voodoo practiced by an spirit person can make love or hate go or come back. Be careful what you try lest you get it back to you in spades.

very much so .dont mess with it it is black magic ,using the forces of Gaia (earth forces )and the electromagnetic field of human and animal Auras.
but the dolls have to be activated before they can do harm ,by ritual .
your dolls may not be activated .
but dont take the chance.
take them to an exorcist to have them cleaned.
burning them is too dangerous .
or a witch doktor is the best he or she can neutralise them

Define real? There are many things in this world that people do not define as "real" but still happen. This could be one of them. I wouldn't try it just to be safe.

yes it is when you know what you are doing. just having a doll is not going to do anything you have to know what to do and how to do it.
