The article focuses on the concept of myth in the context of transmedia narration Twin Peaks as a doubly coded term: After the introduction, Chap. 2 will demonstrate how ancient and medieval myths (Oedipus, Orpheus and Eurydice, King Arthur) serve as reference points for the plot and open up interpretative resonances. Chap. 3 deals with the phenomenon of the series’ mythologization itself in the reception process by fans, bloggers, journalists, and scholars. Against the background of these investigations, Twin Peaks finally becomes readable as a ‘meta-myth,’ in the sense of a modern mythologized narration that incorporates and encompasses older mythical stories.
