Index-Curses
A curse is a warning and a
wish to inflict adversity upon an enemy, using supernatural powers like a Mantra,
a prayer or a magic spell as in Harry Potter. It forms part of many cultures around
the world, from Greek and Roman curses to Celtic curses, African American voodoo to
the Mediterranean evil eye curses, from German hexing to the Indian Shraap (curse).
