Magic shops in Savannah??
 

Hello all! I am going to South Carolina tonight (Yes tonight!) to see my little brother graduate from Marine Corps boot camp at Parris Island. Afterwards I plan to take a quick trip to Savannah to see the sights. I fancy myself an amateur photographer and LOVE old historic cities.
I am wondering if anyone knows of any cool Magic or Voodoo shops in Savannah. I visited one on one of my many trips to New Orleans and find them to be incredibly interesting. I have been spending the day doing some research and so far have come up empty. Any help will be greatly appreciated. I apologize about the last minute posting. Thanks!

I don't remember seeing any. New Orlean's culture includes voodoo. Savannah's doesn't - at least that I am aware of. Google (although I'm sure you already have). There are ghost tours - but the leader of the original one stood us up although we had reservations.

Well, I was wrong. According to one of these websites they cite "Our tour is filled with stories of Savannah's spectral past and enduring voodoo culture". Well, then.

Maybe you could call them and ask about shops.

I think you were right the first time Starrs. Anything for a buck. The episode in Midnight in the cemetery was allegedly pure fiction.

The episode in the movie may have been fictionalized, but I am sure there was a history of voodoo in Savannah, much like in New Orleans, because many of the early residents came from the same cultural background (Caribbean) where voodoo was practiced as a religion.

Caribbean background?
I never got that impression - for Savannah.
Yes, the French Caribbean influence in NO, but in Savannah?
