Voodoo, or Vodou, is a syncretic religion that originated in the West African traditions of the Fon and Ewe peoples, and it developed further in Haiti, blending with elements of Catholicism and indigenous beliefs. Saraca, on the other hand, refers to a genus of flowering plants, notably the Saraca asoca tree, which is native to the Indian subcontinent and is often associated with various cultural and religious practices in Hinduism. While voodoo is primarily a spiritual practice, saraca is more related to nature and its symbolic representations in different cultures.

Where id zombies originate?

That’s partly true! The word zombie and the earliest stories we have about them trace back to Haitian Vodou (voodoo) traditions in the Caribbean, particularly Haiti. In Vodou belief, a zombi was not the flesh-eating monster we see in modern movies. Instead, it was thought to be a person revived from death (or near-death) through magical or spiritual means, often controlled by a sorcerer known as a bokor. These zombies were typically depicted as mindless workers, robbed of their free will rather than hungry for human flesh. The idea spread when outsiders—especially during the 18th–19th centuries—began writing about Vodou practices, often with sensationalism and misunderstanding. Later, American literature and Hollywood films (like White Zombie in 1932) reshaped the zombie into the shambling, dangerous undead creature we’re familiar with today.
