Lafourche Parish, formed in 1807, sits deep in the heart of Louisiana. Its name derived from the French phrase La Fourche or the fork because Bayou Lafourche and Fork Bayou, is a fork of the Mississippi River. 1867, Kofi and Abena Diallo came over from West Africa on a trade boat as ship workers. After being granted their freedom from the captain, they settled in Lafourche Parish and secretly began to practice Vodou or Voodoo. The two had a daughter whom they lovingly named Mawu- Lisa, after the Supreme Creator Deity. Abena was a very powerful Voodoo Priestess and she taught Mawu-Lisa all her secrets and spells. Tragically, she watched as the Klu Klux Klan brutally murdered her parents before she too met an unspeakable fate when she was raped and killed. In her last breath, Mawu-Lisa spoke out an ancient spell that allowed her soul to possess another's body. She took over a young woman's form; Darla Gray had no idea what haunted force moved through her veins. Cursing this new vessel with blind rage and murder, Mawu_Lisa vowed revenge. This is the story of Darla Gray: The Bayou Rose!!
