Sumathi Valavu
Sumathi Valavu ('Sumathi Bend') is a famous sharp hair-pin curve along a forested mountain road near Mylammoodu in Palode, Thiruvananthapuram district, Kerala. Steeped in a tragic true-crime history from the 1950s involving the murder of a young pregnant woman named Sumathi, the hairpin turn has earned legendary status as one of Kerala's most terrifying haunted road stretches, celebrated in local oral traditions and popular Malayalam cinema.
