Sumpit is an illness inflicted on a person through a voodoo doll-like method. A ritual practitioner who performs this obtains something from the victim's body (such as hair). This will be placed on the doll. The practitioner will then use a sharp object, like a pin, so the victim will feel pain depending on the part of the doll which the practitioner punctured. |
