It has its origins in African magical folklore and some how got changed to voodoo.Possibly Haiti or Jamaica,with links to baron Samaldi.Sorry i seem a bit vague,but it is a little hard to answer,due to unwritten history.There is also a link to a range of Rockies that goes across the USA called the hoodoo.

In our vernacular in Louisiana, It's used a number of ways. A spirit. A familiar. An animal or person created by a voodoo priestess to carry out a certain task. A possessed person. Sometimes it is used to mean voodoo. The closest thing I ca think of is the word "spook". Check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoodoo http://www.folkart.com/voodooshop/

Hoodoo consists of a large body of African folkloric practices and beliefs with a considerable admixture of American Indian botanical knowledge and European folklore.

It is a rock shaped kind of like a hill with a rock on top of it like a cap.
