Liquid Death is branching out with a new product in the form of the Steve-O voodoo doll. The doll is made in collaboration alongside the stunt performer and entertainer to release voodoo dolls that are stuffed with his own hair. To do so, the brand shaved his head to collect the hair and then placed this into pouches with ritual salts.
The sets are stuffed with handmade effigies, which have been "activated by a real witch doctor." Additionally, since the idea is that these dolls have been charged by the forces of the occult, whatever is done to the dolls will also be felt by Steve-O himself on his own body. Notably, all of the materials used to create the dolls are natural.
