The Voodoo Factor is a 1959-1960 British television drama mini-series. It consisted of six half-hour episodes and was written by Lewis Griefer.[1]

Cast members included Maurice Kaufmann, Maxine Audley and Jill Hyem who later went on to write and create many TV series herself. Hyem remembers being afraid of the real spiders used in the production and the fact that during recording Griefer had still not decided if her character, Alice Simms, would die or not.[2]

Unlike many other British series of the 1950s, the series survives intact.[3] It was produced by Associated Television (ATV).
