</div><div class='leafly-legacy-article'><p>Last year we brought you the <a href="http://www.leafly.com/news/offbeat/boo-leaflys-top-5-strains-for-halloween-night">spookiest strains</a> to celebrate Halloween with; this year we’re getting downright horrific. These strains are not for the faint of heart. Hideous creatures, the walking dead, and dismemberment are just a few of the topics we&#8217;ll cover. If you’re into bone-chilling, shiver-inducing terror: sit back, relax, and pull up one of these scary strains, a classic horror film, and enjoy the show!</p>
<h2 class="heading--l py-md"><a href="http://www.leafly.com/hybrid/brains-damage"><img src="https://leafly-cms-production.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/legacy/content/these-truly-horrific-strains-are-just-what-you-need-to-celebrate/wv7oZ4drTMO5MZmYH2if_Brains%20Damage.JPG" alt="" /></a><strong><a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/hybrid/brains-damage">Brains Damage</a></strong></h2>
<p>This <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/hybrid/">hybrid</a> cross between Acapulco Mexican, <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/indica/mango">Mango</a>, <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/sativa/hawaiian">Hawaiian</a>, and KC 36 won’t leave you zombified, but it will come after your brains! Bred by Holland’s KC Brains, its mellow, <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/explore#!/explore/tags-relaxed">relaxed</a> effects will give you a subtle <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/explore/tags-energetic">energy</a> akin to Romero’s ghouls from <em>Night of the Living Dead</em>: subdued, slow, but totally content to seek fresh flesh from dusk ‘til dawn.</p>
<h2 class="heading--l py-md"><a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/indica/frankenstein"><img src="https://leafly-cms-production.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/legacy/content/these-truly-horrific-strains-are-just-what-you-need-to-celebrate/7x2b43iyQFf5OJ0FrkYg_Frankenstein.JPG" alt="" /></a><strong><a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/indica/frankenstein">Frankenstein</a></strong></h2>
<p>It’s no coincidence that this <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/indica/">indica</a> inspires the sort of <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/explore#/!/explore/tags-creative/">creativity</a> needed to stitch together a creature from the parts and pieces of other living beings. Frankenstein (or Fronkensteen, depending on whom you ask), will give you the inventive spirit to create a monster of your own, but it will quickly soothe you into a <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/explore/tags-happy">happy</a>, relaxed lull that gives way to a good night’s sleep. If you aren’t feeling like harvesting body parts, your night would be just as well spent curling up on the couch with Mel Brooks’ classic Young Frankenstein.</p>

<p>Although this <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/hybrid/">hybrid</a> is lesser known than the infamous murder of the same name, its effects are no-less potent. While it won’t leave your body severed and mutilated in a vacant lot, it will isolate and relieve chronic <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/explore/symptoms-pain">pain</a>, an irony that isn’t lost on us. Although this hybrid is known to produce <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/explore/tags-euphoric">euphoria</a>, its effects lean strongly indica, and is best used for a Halloween movie marathon.</p>
<h2 class="heading--l py-md"><a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/hybrid/white-zombie"><img src="https://leafly-cms-production.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/legacy/content/these-truly-horrific-strains-are-just-what-you-need-to-celebrate/7sFliNXQ6WUUuegH9hCg_White%20Zombie.JPG" alt="" /></a><strong><a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/hybrid/white-zombie">White Zombie</a></strong></h2>
<p>Whether you’re a diehard metal fan or just enjoy the plight of the undead, this cerebrally-focused <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/hybrid/">hybrid</a> has everything you need to stimulate your brains(sssss)! This strain is truly multi-faceted: it will get your <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/explore#/!/explore/tags-creative/">creative</a> juices flowing while simultaneously relieving <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/explore#/!/explore/symptoms-stress/">stress</a> and <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/explore#/!/explore/symptoms-depression/">depression</a>.</p>

<p>Unlike its namesake, this strain’s history isn’t shrouded in mystery and mysticism. Have an unprecedented case of the Halloween blues? This strain is also know to crush <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/explore#/!/explore/symptoms-depression/">depression</a>, <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/explore#/explore/symptoms-fatigue">fatigue</a>, and <a class="underline" href="http://www.leafly.com/explore#/!/explore/symptoms-stress/">stress</a>, leaving you ready to dance the night away or perform ritualistic Haitian Vodou, whichever lights your cermonial candle.</p>

These 5 Truly Horrific Strains Are Just What You Need to Celebrate Halloween

Okay. Coming across quality thai strains are like christmas for me, and this is like that one "big" present hidden behind the tree just when you think you didn't get what you "really" wanted that year. Its that good. Thai (purple, I hear) x AK47. Seriously a kick to the head that has every orifice in your head dripping but in that, "good god, this is what cannabis should be like" sort of way. VERY heavy, very intense head high that does segue nicely down through your body. Tends to linger in the groinal area, too- sex was Amazing for my girl and i, as we both found this plant to have several aphrodisiac qualities. Small warning, however: try to go in with a good mindset and you will be rewarded greatly. Negative vibes however, do not lend themselves well as the insensity only amplifies every last thing your feeling. Feeling down? Grab a bowl or two, your lady, a movie and laugh, love and be merry. Lifes too short. Fuck already. -Father Dope. 

I have to say: WOOOW!  This is one beautiful strain, or this is one freaking fantastic Voodoo batch.  Either way, I can only hope to communicate the distant dispair I feel for everyone who doesn't get to enjoy this little wonder.

Exquisitely euphoric, Voodoo packs the loveliest wallop this side of Girl Scout Cookies.  Sitting produces a bit of a couch lock for me, but once I'm standing and walking the stimulating sativa energy kicks in quite pleasantly.

Some may not appreciate this space cadet zone I've been in since toke 1, but it is a welcome respite for both me and my anxiety.  Thoughts distract from bodily sensations, euphoria especially.  This lets me sink into them with welcome abandon.  

My best wishes to those who wish to take a trip through this smokey Nirvana.  I can not recommend enough that all do so :)

I had smoked this a few times from a pipe and got a satisfying all-around high, but three hits from a bong gave me the strongest head high I have ever experienced, and I'm a near daily smoker. We used hemp wick to light it and tasted pungent, spicy, and buttery notes. It gave me a full head rush that made me feel like my retinas had laser beams coming out of them, but not in an uncomfortable way.

Personal favourite, must be the terpenes or something but this strain is ideal for those who would like to control their mental pains.

Voodoo is incredible- I read an article about what strains were best for enhancing sex and it said that Voodoo was the best strain for a three some. Which was funny because we were having our first three some and that's why I was looking. I decided to try it out in the hot tub before our #3 arrived and it instantly turned me into a maniac!  I had my husband pinned up against the side of the hot tub and had non stop orgasms to the point that I could not breathe!!!  

Once I was done I was so chilled out and content with the world but was worried that I was going to be worn out when our guest arrived and not be able to enjoy it. Took a little nap and hit it again and BAM I started up again. 

I thought that it had to be a placebo effect though because I was pretty excited about the situation. The next day was my husbands birthday but we worked 10 hours and drove 5 more so when we got to the hotel I was totally uninterested in sex. I thought maybe my voodoo might get me turned on enough to make an effort but again as soon as I hit it I was all over him. 

It has had that same effect every single time. I am almost 50 years old and never tried weed until last year. I have tried about a dozen different strains as well as lots of edibles. I like almost everything but honestly can take it or leave it. Except for my VooDoo. 

It literally makes me feel like my girl parts are on fire. And it is almost instant!  But unlike some other strains that make me a zombie or make me wired, this comes over me like a warm wave and when it passes I am alert and at peace. 

My hubby likes it but he likes all weed so that's not saying much. It does not have the same aphrodisiac effect for him but does make him able to keep up with me. 

Did I mention I love this stuff??

The listing here says no Voodoo in the Colorado Springs area. Strawberry Fields carries Voodoo Star, a hybrid that is amazing and wonderful. Always a favorite at our house. 

I must admit the first time I smoked this strain I had it out of a 50z bong, one of the worst experiences of my life, I got overly high  and this was when I constantly smoking. it was not a pleasent experience, it was extremely strange and to this day I will not smoke voodoo in anything besides a joint.

<p>Thai refers to a cannabis variety that grows natively in Thailand and was brought to the U.S. in the 70s and 80s. This pure sativa <a href="/news/cannabis-101/the-cannabis-origin-what-is-a-landrace-strain">landrace</a> is sometimes called &ldquo;Thai Sticks&rdquo; because of the way its buds are traditionally dried and tied into long sticks. This original Thai variety has given rise to many strains we commonly see on the market today, including <a href="/strains/voodoo">Voodoo</a>, <a href="/strains/juicy-fruit">Juicy Fruit</a>, and the classic <a href="/strains/haze">Haze</a>. Thai induces powerful but comfortable effects and has a distinct fruity, citrus aroma. This strain is a challenge for growers outside tropical climates, but greenhouse gardens make this grow possible for experts patient enough for Thai&rsquo;s long growth cycle and slow flowering.</p>
