V as in Voodoo
Prismark1010 September 2023
Yancy Derringer tackles black magic and as this was made in 1959, you fear the worst.

It is the evening of St John's Eve, everything is New Orleans is closed. Some are in fear and John Colton is concerned. Voodoo rituals are taking place.

At Madame Francine's some African-Americans tell Colton and Yancy Derringer that voodoo is being used to cover up a murder. The culprit is Emily Dubois and she has cursed Charles Hammond du to marry her younger sister.

The Dubois family live almost secluded in their plantation. Ever since Emily's twin brother died in the civil war.

With a big cat on the loose, Colton cannot immediately detain Emily Dubois.

This could had been an embarrassingly tone deaf story of it's time. It ends up being a mystery thriller that tackles schizophrenia.
