It occurs outside the known bounds of reality. it differs from Science Fiction in that supernatural elements- such as monsters, ghosts, even religious plot elements are active and preternatural elements are used to punctuate the action or speed it up.The use of mythology is an example- characters such as Mercury and Zeus, etc. There is a thin twilight grey line between fantasy-supernatural and the occult. about the only safe borderland is the dream world- where the whole plot turns out to be a nightmare at the end- and not real- this was, of course used by Lyman Frank Baum of (oz) fame.Mary Poppins, for example, has supernatural overtones, she has superpowers and uses them , not always for humanitarian gains. it is not a good idea in my opinion.prefer stuff that is at least plausible, like science-fiction. no occult rubbish.
