The Calonarang stories are set during the reign of the East Javanese King Erlangga in the 11th century. The stories are about a woman called Calonarang who was rejected (or widowed) by her husband and exiled to live in the forest. Her beautiful daughter, Ratna Manggali, was married to a prince of king Erlangga’s court. However her mother’s reputation as a witch leads the king to send Ratna Manggali back home. Angry about her fate, Calonarang uses supernatural powers to wreak sickness and destruction on the kingdom.
