According to local history, Mother Pechi Amman directly nursed a woman when in labour condition.  During the Kundam festival, the fire pit – Poo Midhi Thiruvizha – is built on the road itself.

The main prayer is for wedding boon.  Pechi Amman in the temple is praised as a graceful nurse for pregnant women.  They pray to Her for safe delivery of the child.

It is said that there are two snakes in an anthill resembling the form of Mother Amman.  They do not fall in the eyes of general public.  But the priest claims to have seen them many times and says they are about 25 feet long.

The temple has many stories to its credit including the name of Amman.  While Lord Shiva and Mother Parvathi were passing through the banks of Noyyal, Parvathi felt the depth of the river at a spot and told it to Lord Shiva.  Hence, the name Angalamman, people say.  There was no stone idol for Amman in the past.  People were pouring milk on an anthill which later began to like Mother Amman.  They began to apply turmeric and designed the anthill with eyes etc. and gave it the form of Amman.  Even today, the presiding idol is only in clay.  A stone idol is made for purpose of abishek and Alankaras.   It is said that the famous Chola king – Karikal Chola visited this temple.  People say that they hear the sound of anklets during night time.  Mother Angalamman is the protector of many residing around the temple.
