七爺八爺:他們兩位是城隍爺部將,專司捕捉惡魔邪鬼,押刑犯受審。據傳云:生前八爺范無救與七爺謝必安約好在橋上見面,七爺臨時想到要回家辦些私事,兩個言明不見不散。忽遇大風雨,八爺於是躲在橋墩等七爺,河水越長越高淹至頭部,仍不肯離去,堅持為七爺守信,後溺水而死。當七爺趕回來見狀甚慘,傷心乃自縊而斃,故其面容以吐出長舌。各位尊容長相雖難看,但其義、信長存,民間因而敬仰膜拜這對難兄難弟。七爺謝將軍,民間稱「挑仔爺」,是高腳之意,身高一丈多,為「捉」大將,身穿白袍,頭戴「一見大吉」的高長帽,手執押刑犯的「魚珈」刑具。八爺范將軍稱「矮仔爺」,身高約五尺,為「拿」大將,黑臉穿黑袍,頂戴金屬盔帽,手拿「善惡分明」明示牌。其出巡都化妝成人形的大神旺仔,由強壯的青年,鑽入其內部頂架行進。七爺以慢而穩健的八字步行走遊境,不時擺動著雙長臂,形似威風八面,八爺則以平行快步走路,有時不免橫衝直撞,似急忙緊張著要去辦事的模樣。
