Legend
The devil's stone aimed at Martna church
When Martna church was built, the devil could not bear the sight of it. He climbed the old Ehmja hillfort, which people later called Kuradimägi, the Devil's Hill, and lifted a great boulder to hurl at the church. Just as he swung, a cock crowed in the village and the throw went wrong. In a fit of rage the devil flung the stone in the direction of the bird instead, and it landed in a field by the road. The hollows on its surface were said to be the marks of the devil's claws. Today the Kuradikivi, a long mossy boulder, lies beside the Saanika–Martna road in Ehmja village.

Eesti keeles
Kui Martna kirik valmis sai, ei suutnud kurat seda pealt vaadata. Ta ronis Ehmja linnamäele, mida hiljem hakati kutsuma Kuradimäeks, ja tõstis suure kivi, et see kiriku pihta visata. Just siis, kui ta hoogu võttis, laulis külas kukk ja vise läks nurja. Vihahoos paiskas kurat kivi hoopis kuke suunas ning see kukkus tee äärde põllule. Rahnu pinnal olevaid lohke peeti kuradi küünte jälgedeks. Tänapäeval lebab piklik ja sammaldunud Kuradikivi Ehmja külas Saanika–Martna tee ääres.
