Not OP. So, are you only scared by things that are realistic then? I'm not trying to catch you out or anything, I'm actually curious. Because by your logic, it seems like you must only be scared of realistic stuff.

Wish is valid, but so utterly unrelatable to me. Real things are very rarely scary to me, specifically because I can use my rational mind to reason out why I don't need to be scared of them.

Whereas things that aren't real have the capacity to be incredibly terrifying, because they're outside the bounds of my rational mind. Once I commit to believing in a scary monster for the purpose of the story, there is at least a part of my mind that reacts to it as real (that's the whole point, after all). And if the Boogeyman exists, you can't reason yourself out of the distinct possibility that it's in your closet right now.

If something literally can't physically exist there's no reason to be afraid of it.

So...how do you enjoy fiction involving fantasy/supernatural elements? Do you just not?

[herpymcderp]

Are you saying you think it's impossible to write something fantastical that's realistic?

We have organisms on this very planet with the ability to do things that were previously inconceivable to science! My problem isn't with ideas that are outside of what is ordinary, it's when those ideas are lazy and don't even have a theoretical basis in reality.

That perceived impossibility is a huge component of Lovecraftian horror, though. Ancient monstrosities that are so wrong and irrational and impossible by our meager human comprehension that being confronted with them drives you insane.
