DORMA VILLAGE - SIERRA LEONE 04-03-2015 Sembu, a local witch doctor who specializes in dark magic, sits on his bed in his mud hut as nefarious shadow hovers above him in the shine of the flashlight as he prepares open the spirit portal to fire a witch bullet at an unsuspecting victim in Dorma Village, Sierra Leone on April 3, 2015. Many in Sierra Leone see their local witch doctor as an aid to other parts of their life aside from physical health. If a neighbor has done you wrong, you can have a spell fired at them in the form of a witch bullet. (Photo by Michael G. Seamans/Pulitzer Center on Crisis Reporting)
