A Voodoo Demon is a type of monster found in the Underworld. They are identical to Demons in behavior, but differ slightly in appearance: a small Guide Voodoo Doll hangs from one of its talons, and it lacks the blue bracelets and anklets that are worn by Demons.

They also have 20 more health than standard Demons, but deal the same amount of damage. Instead of just having a chance to drop the Demon Scythe , they will also drop their Guide Voodoo Doll. Note that killing one over lava will likely cause the doll to fall into the lava, killing the Guide and making the Wall of Flesh spawn.

Quick Answers

What is the key difference between a Voodoo Demon and a regular Demon in terms of appearance? toggle section
The key difference between a Voodoo Demon and a regular Demon in Terraria is that the Voodoo Demon has a small Guide Voodoo Doll hanging upside-down from one of its talons. Additionally, it lacks the blue bracelets and anklets that are typically worn by regular Demons.

What happens when a Voodoo Demon is defeated and the Guide Voodoo Doll falls into a lava pool? toggle section
When a Voodoo Demon is defeated, it drops a Guide Voodoo Doll. If this doll falls into a lava pool in the Underworld while the Guide is alive, it results in the summoning of the Wall of Flesh, a formidable boss in Terraria. This also leads to the instant death of the Guide. It's important to note that this event will only occur if the doll is destroyed in the Underworld. If the doll falls into lava outside of the Underworld, it will simply be destroyed with no effect.

How does the Voodoo Demon's behavior compare to that of the regular Demon? toggle section
The Voodoo Demon in Terraria behaves identically to the regular Demon. However, it has a distinct appearance with a small Guide Voodoo Doll hanging upside-down from one of its talons. Unlike the regular Demon, the Voodoo Demon does not wear blue bracelets and anklets. It's a rare enemy found in The Underworld, and it's known for its ability to possess a voodoo doll of the chosen one, linking the soul with the world's guardian.

What item does the Voodoo Demon always drop upon defeat? toggle section
The Voodoo Demon always drops a Guide Voodoo Doll upon defeat.

Why might defeating a Voodoo Demon in the Underworld result in an unwanted event? toggle section
Defeating a Voodoo Demon in the Underworld might result in an unwanted event because these higher-ranking demons can possess a voodoo doll of the chosen one, whose soul is linked with the world's guardian. If the Voodoo Demon is defeated and the doll is dropped into lava, it could potentially trigger a catastrophic event due to the spiritual connection between the doll and the world's guardian.

Notes

  • Like normal Demons, Voodoo Demons take no damage from lava.
  • They are immune to the On Fire! and Cursed Inferno debuffs.
  • They tend to spawn less frequently in Hardmode.
  • They have a fairly low spawn rate compared to Demons and Arch Demons.
  • If the voodoo doll in their hand comes into contact with lava, it will still not summon the Wall of Flesh
  • They spawn less frequently in Expert Mode
  • Oddly enough, the "hurt" sound they make was not updated along with regular demons in 1.3

Tips

  • It may be worth investing time into building a 1 block thick bridge over a large portion of the Underworld. This will both ensure that no Guide Voodoo Dolls accidentally fall in lava, also making the fights with the Wall of Flesh more manageable.
    • In order to effectively farm Guide Voodoo Dolls, it may be worth utilizing the 1 block thick bridge as an arena for battling multiple Demons at once, due to the low spawn rate of Voodoo Demons.

History
