Sometime around August, in the Bhadrapad month of the Hindu calendar, a fair is organized at the temple and it attracts devotees from all around. The fair, in typical Kali Puja style, involves severing the heads of many goats. As soon as a goat's head is severed, the temple Shaman, called Chela in the local language and bestowed with special powers by the goddess drinks the blood of the severed goat.
