Hexed or Enchanted?

There are various realms in the existence of the universe. Whether you choose to believe it or not, they sometimes too interfere in our own world without permission.

This Really Happened

Let me tell you a short story.

In the year 2018, in a small area in West Africa, someone had an experience.

A young school girl alongside a number of her classmates went to work for their class teacher in her farm which was close to the school. At the farm, she choked on something in her throat and coughed for a while. She needed a drink, unfortunately nobody came with one. There happened to be a stream close by however, and that became her savior in that instance. Thank goodness! Problem seemed solved, until she realized that she had suddenly gone mute.

She opened her mouth to speak and they heard nothing. Unbelievable, I know right? Everyone thought the same thing but it was real. She couldn’t speak for the rest of the day, the next day and the days afterwards. Would you believe it was over a month before her speech returned, after several visits to various hospitals and churches too, as they were believers.

Following the incident, investigations went on to unravel the mystery. It was found out that a fetish woman lived in the bushes by the stream. She had performed one of her fetish rites in the stream earlier that day. This meant the stream was off limits for that entire day. Ignorantly, the poor girl fell victim of the hex.

There could be another explanation, but none yet has been found, leaving the only one as the influence of the aforementioned voodoo. That was definitely not human working, it had a supernatural marking to it. They believed and I think I’m going with that too.

What about you?
