Original installments that have no fantastic elements followed by sequels that have aliens, etc. would fall under The Series Has Left Reality. The more general idea of works getting additionally fantastical through sequels is Fantasy Creep.

In most of these cases, the setting is becoming less fantastic, not more. As things that were previously regarded as supernatural are revealed to be the works of a Sufficiently Advanced Alien.

Related, a setting becoming less fantastic or supernatural could be Doing In the Wizard.
