  • Oungan trè koni Kesner Auguste, mèt Lakou Twa Wòzanfè nan Gran Gwav, mouri, epi anpil moun tande teledjòl ki di msye te bòkò ki fè moun tounen zonbi. Moun soti nan zòn nan, sèvitè li, di se pa vrè, yo di Mèt Twa Wòzanfè te gerisè ki pa t konn manje moun.

  • Well-known oungan Kesner Auguste of Lakou Trois Rose-en-Fer in Grand-Goâve dies, and rumors spread that he was a bòkò who turned people into zonbis. Several people from the area, his "sèvitè", deny this, saying that Mèt Trois Rose-en-Fer was a healer who did not "manje moun" (kill people).

  • À la mort du célèbre houngan (prêtre vaudou) Kesner Auguste du lakou Trois Rose-en-Fer à Grand-Goâve, des rumeurs se répandent selons lesquelles il aurait été un bòkò qui transformait les gens en zombis. Plusieurs habitants de la communauté, ses « serviteurs », démentent ces rumeurs, déclarant que Mèt Trois Rose-en-Fer était un guérisseur et ne tuait personne.
