One Virginia teenager decided to dabble into the dark arts by practicing Haitian voodoo spells. It seems to have been a fatal mistake, as she unfortunately lost her life. Known as “Papa Legba” this deity of sorts is worshipped or prayed to in the mystical dark art world of voodoo.

Legend says Legba will give permission to speak with the spirits of Guinee. In Haitian culture, he is known as the great executioner or elocutioner. It is believed he can speak in any language and persuade people at will. He stands at a spiritual crossroads of sorts.

Papa Legba is a “loa,” these are spirits of Haitian and Louisiana Voodoo. Legba represents a West African and Caribbean Voodoo god and has many different names depending on the region in which he’s worshiped, though he’s most commonly known in Haiti as Papa Legba.

When 19 year old Virginia resident Katelyn “Kat” Restin was found dead, she was discovered in a bathtub at her mother’s home according to social media posts. Her friends found her and were shocked to find her dead. It was a disturbing scene to see.

What makes this weird is the fact that she claimed to have seen Papa Legba several days earlier. People thought nothing of it at first. However, she was warned by some to not try these…
