The figure of a subtle creature in Javanese mythology named Kajiman will be the main element in the story of the film directed by the production house Visionary Capital and Relate Films. "The initial idea (the story of) Kajiman is because we want to find something that has never been explored, finally we researched before deciding to (lift the story) of Kajiman because there are several articles and books that mention (the figure) of this Study," said Adriyanto in a virtual press conference on Youtube Relate Films, Wednesday, May 3. Adriyanto admitted that what is interesting about the figure of Kajiman is that this creature has not yet been known its visual form, in contrast to other ghosts in the more popular traditions of Indonesian society such as pocong and kuntilanak.

"Justru risetnya jadi menarik karena kalau misalnya kita meriset makhluk yang sudah ada visualnya seperti pocong atau kuntilanak kita sudah ada referensi visual," kata Adriyanto.Dia menambahkan referensi literasi mengenai sosok Kajiman terbilang sedikit sehingga selain mengandalkan buku dan artikel, dia juga mencari informasi melalui orang-orang yang lebih memahami soal sosok Kajiman.Selama proses penggarapan dia mencari cara untuk membuat suasana horor dalam film dengan memasukkan unsur mitos budaya Jawa serasa seperti terjadi pada kehidupan sehari-hari. Unsur-unsur tradisi dalam kebudayaan Jawa seperti primbon dan weton turut mewarnai cerita film.
