Fantasy
Fantasy is a
genre that uses
magic and other
supernatural forms as a primary element of
plot, theme, and/or
setting. The genre is generally distinguished from
science fiction and
horror by overall look, feel, and
theme of the individual work, though there is a great deal of overlap between the three (collectively known as
speculative fiction). In its broadest sense, fantasy comprises works by many writers, artists, filmmakers, and musicians, from ancient
myths and
legends to many recent works embraced by a wide audience today.
