Supernatural fiction is an evolution of the gothic horror, paranormal romance, and paranormal mystery genres. As gothic horror novels kept being churned out and the vampires,witches, ghosts, the mad scientist's experiment, or everyone else kept dying people decided to change things up a bit and made the supernatural creatures antiheroes. People liked reading a paranormal mystery where the protagonist would investigate the dark,creepy,victorian castle instead of a {{high fantasy}} where the protagonist lives in a wonderful magical land with all kinds of wonderful magical secrets hiding underneath every rock. The mythology is the same as catholic medieval era mythology, adjusted a little bit to allow room for antiheros. If the story doesn't take place in the eighteenth or nineteenth century you can expect the aesthetic to be reminiscent of that era.

Supernatural fiction is hard to clearly define which makes publishers and movie producers shy about marketing a work as supernatural fiction. Often times it will be labeled as {{historical fantasy}} or {{urban fantasy}}. Which isn't entirely misleading as the genres can overlap. Many {{young adult}} urban fantasies are also supernatural fiction. Some might even argue supernatural fiction should be completely subsumed under urban fantasy. Gothic horror, paranormal romance, and paranormal mystery aren't supernatural fiction but people like the way magic is presented in these stories and experiment around with them to make a unique setting. This is the essence of supernatural fiction.
