metadata.value: Analysis and interpretation of the short stories by Indonesian female writer Intan Paramaditha (Intan Paramaditha, born in 1979) make it possible to understand that her writing occupies a special niche in the modern Indonesian literary paradigm. Paramaditha’s feminist texts
  are disguised as horror stories with settings in contemporary Indonesia. The article examines
  five short stories (“Spinner of Darkness” (Pemintal Kegelapan), “Vampire” (Vampir), “Polaroid’s Mystery” (Misteri Polaroid), “The Blind Woman without a Toe” (Perempuan Buta tanpa
  Ibu Jari), and “The Obsessive Twist” (Goyang Penasaran)). Using the intertextual method, it
  was possible to prove the gothic poetics of these literary works. The short stories contain the
  mosaic of folklore-mythological motives from the Malay Archipelago, Biblical and Quranic
  narratives, as well as European fairy tales and allusions to American horror fiction and horror films. Her prose is built upon some borrowed European literary forms for expression of
  authentic Indonesian content. The social themes are intertwined with feminist criticism that is
  presented as a Kitsch of the Indonesian mass culture. In “The Obsessive Twist” the main conflict is focused on the heated debates on sexuality, politics, violence, and religion. The feminist
  agenda of her prose is contrasted with the turn of contemporary Indonesia towards a Muslim
  patriarchal society. Paramaditha’s works represent a unique product of West-East-synthesis
  aimed not only at the Indonesian, but also the global audience.
