Supernatural Patterns

"Supernatural Patterns" explores the often-overlooked logic underpinning successful supernatural narratives in film, television, and literature. It argues that the most compelling stories aren't just about fantastical elements, but about establishing and adhering to consistent rules within their fictional worlds. This approach provides both creators and fans with a framework for analyzing and appreciating the genre. Discover how understanding narrative theory and genre analysis, authors create believable worlds where societal anxieties and beliefs find expression.

The book progresses by first introducing the core concept of "supernatural logic" and its function within fictional worlds. Subsequent sections then explore specific patterns and techniques employed by authors, such as establishing rules for supernatural abilities and exploring the consequences of breaking them. By examining the intersection of these rules with mundane aspects, the book ultimately demonstrates how these principles can be applied to create more compelling and believable supernatural narratives.
