Fantasy is a genre of art that uses magic and other supernatural forms as a primary element of plot, theme, 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 covers works by many writers, artists, film makers and musicians, from ancient myths and legends, to many recent works embraced by a wide audience today.
Though the genre in its modern sense is less than two centuries old, its antecedents have a long and distinguished history.
