Voodoo Head

Voodoo Head is a passive item added in The Binding of Isaac: Repentance.

Effects[]

Spawns an additional Curse Room on each floor, if possible.
- Doesn't work on the Ascent.
  - Doesn't work on the First Floor if its a starting item (e.g. as Eden).
Curse rooms have improved layouts and rewards while Voodoo Head is held.
A coin is guaranteed to spawn in Curse Rooms.

Has no effect in Greed Mode.
The singular coin generated by the item in curse rooms cannot be a special coin (nickel, dime, lucky, etc).
Does not spawn a coin if Voodoo Head was picked up on the same floor.
This item is beneficial for The Lost due to the chance of obtaining Dead Cat or Guppy's Collar in curse rooms. However, use caution as the run can easily end from being hit while fighting any enemies inside. A teleport card, such as 0 - The Fool, would be advised to prevent such situations.
This item is also very beneficial for Tainted Judas or Tainted Forgotten, as they can enter and leave curse rooms for free.
The coin that spawns, while minimal for most characters, is considerably useful for Keeper and Tainted Keeper, letting them partially heal from the curse room door's donation and letting Tainted Keeper leave even if there are no enemies to get coins from.
This item causes the level generation to increase the minimum number of dead ends on each floor by 1, increasing the likelihood of curse rooms spawning.
- The level generation does not guarantee an additional curse room can be placed; there is limited space for special rooms, and other types may take priority over it.
  - If a curse room doesn't spawn, it's possible Voodoo Head still increased the dead end count, giving you an extra special room.

Cursed Penny: Since a coin always spawns in improved Curse Room layouts, the trinket can be used to exit them without taking damage. This is especially beneficial for The Lost and Tainted Lost.

Voodoo Head is from the Antibirth mod where it had similar effects, except it would not improve the contents of Curse Rooms.
