A death spell is a magical formula used to kill or bring about the death of another person. The spells can be performed using various methods, such as potions, powders, dolls, or simply by uttering certain words or phrases. Death spells are often very specific, requiring the use of rare ingredients or special conditions in order to work. In some cases, the spells may also require a personal item from the intended victim, such as a lock of their hair or nail clippings.
