It is said that through black magic people create bad conditions for their enemies. Some states of India are also famous for black magic, but do you know about a place where you can get your enemy cursed by paying money openly. However, it is quite different from black magic.
There is a unique tradition in Hong Kong, China, which is called ‘Villain Hitting’. Where people come from far and wide for this work and stand in long queues. Let us know what this tradition is.
What is the tradition of ‘villain hitting’?
‘Villain hitting’ is an old folk tradition in Hong Kong. In this ritual, especially experienced women curse their enemies on behalf of the people. Usually these women are older and are called “villain hitters” in the area.
How is the curse given?
If a person feels that someone is harassing him, then he tells the name of that person to these women. Many people also provide his photo or birth related information for identification. After this, the name of that person is written on a paper and while chanting the mantra, that paper is hit repeatedly with slippers. People believe that by doing this, bad luck and negative energy goes away and the influence of the person who is troubling you gets eliminated.
Where does this strange ritual take place?
The main place of this unique tradition is considered to be under the Canal Road flyover in the Causeway Bay area of Hong Kong. There are many small stalls set up on the roadside, where people keep coming to get this special ritual done. There is a crowd of people here throughout the day.
Where did this tradition start?
This tradition originated from the old folk beliefs of Southern China. It includes some beliefs of Taoism, people’s faith and symbolic methods related to warding off evil forces. Over time this tradition became a special part of Hong Kong’s culture. Now in the age of technology, some people even make booking for this ritual through mobile app or messaging platform. After this, a video of the entire process is made and sent to them.
Unique way to vent anger
Interestingly, most people who participate in this ritual do not really believe that it will cause supernatural harm to anyone. For them, this is a way to vent out their anger. For this reason, this unique tradition is still alive and every year hundreds of people come here and perform the ritual of cursing their “villain”.
