Not to be confused with fantasy or the supernatural, the fantastic is its own beast and perhaps the most deeply frightening of all narrative modes. This work studies the various dimensions of the fantastic, and explains why the fantastic is not about ghosts or monsters, but the incomprehensible sides of our own reality, and the terrifying unknown.
