The most popular sterotype of using a Voodoo doll involves sticking pins into it.
I wouldn't consider Robert to be a voodoo doll, but he is a haunted doll. And yes, he is real.
Honestly, it's magic. When you make a voodoo doll correctly, it'll work. I made a Sally Stitch doll and I works. My jaw is currently bleeding so, don't try this.
If it is your voodoo doll (not one that belongs to someone else, or one you have found.) Then unraveling the voodoo doll is a way to undo or end the conjure, if there is one in place with the doll.
During your upkeep you put a pin counter on Voodoo Doll. If Voodoo Doll is untapped at the end of your turn it deal damage to it's controller equeal to the number of counters. You can pay double the amount of counters on Voodoo Doll, and tap Voodoo Doll to deal damage to target creature or player. Lets take the scenario that it is the beginning of your turn and there are currently 3 pin counters on Voodoo Doll. During your upkeep put a pin counter on Voodoo Doll (4 counters) At any time during your turn (when you can play an instant effect) you can pay 8 mana, tap Voodoo Doll and deal 4 damage to a target creature or player. If Voodoo Doll remains untapped at the end of your turn, you will take 4 damage and Voodoo Doll will be destroyed. You do not have to use the Voodoo Doll's ability, all you need is for Voodoo Doll to be tapped at the end of your turn. You could tap it with a fast effect, or use a spell to turn it into a creature and attack. There are a vast assortment of ways to prevent Voodoo Doll from dealing you damage. Personally i would suggest that you get a better 6 drop card. :) Good Luck (may you never be mana screwed)
A voodoo doll
yes voodoo dolls are real but they will only work if you belive in it . if your making a voodoo doll and your focussing on "willl it work????no i dont think it will or this wont work ill proove it" then it will not work so if you belive youll get revenge
used in voodoo religion to hurt someone
usually means that the victim targeted by the voodoo doll will die. this is the worst type of voodoo doll. From the dominican republic and they throw them in the ocean to curse those who receive it upon other shores.
Sources say to see a voodoo doll in one's dreams is to see a primitive aspect of one's self. However if you see a voodoo doll upon waking, I think it simply means you saw a voodoo doll. Not everything has an underlying meaning.

The amount of pins used in a voodoo doll depends entirely on the purpose of the focus.
