Theyyam is a popular ritual form of worship of North Malabar in Kerala, India, predominant in the Kolathunadu area and also in Kodagu and Tulu nadu of Karnataka as a living cult with several thousand-year-old traditions, rituals and customs.
The performers of Theyyam belong to the lower class community, and have an important position in Theyyam. People of these districts consider Theyyam itself as a God and they seek blessings from this Theyyam.
A similar custom is followed in the Tulu Nadu region of neighbouring Karnataka known as Bhuta Kola. (Wikipedia)

寻找theyyam
经过两天的奔波终于在Tellicherry找到传统民间求神表演theyyam, 晚上酒店的经理把我要去的庙宇地点确定给嘟嘟车司机知道。
嘟嘟车往庙宇路上经过些很淳朴民居,没有街灯路面满是坑洞,到达后还要走一段小路。
时间刚好, 这座乡村神社里除了有开放的剧场,现场还有大概三到四百位当地村民围观。
