I’d read a lot of books where the girls are in awe of the supernatural male, so I thought it was time to write about an awesome and super-powerful female who is also quite vulnerable and naive about life on earth.
I’m always looking for a sign – not in a spooky, supernatural way, but in a ‘neurotic writer’ kind of way.
The question of whether there exists a supernatural creator, a God, is one of the most important that we have to answer. I think that it is a scientific question. My answer is no.
A changeling is one child substituted for another. I couldn’t find anything more apt. We had to kind of fight that supernatural element in the publicity, and I offered to try and find another title, but Clint liked it, and it stayed.
I think people are just intrigued with the supernatural. I mean, I know that I am. It’s something that I find very interesting.
I don’t want to say I hear voices; well, actually I do hear voices, but I don’t think it’s supernatural. I think it’s just that when characters are given enough texture and backbone, then lo and behold, they stand on their own.
Purity is not imposed upon us as though it were a kind of punishment, it is one of those mysterious but obvious conditions of that supernatural knowledge of ourselves in the Divine, which we speak of as faith. Impurity does not destroy this knowledge, it slays our need for it.
I’ve been in very protective shows: ‘How to Get Away With Murder,’ ‘Vampire Diaries,’ and even ‘Gracepoint’ and ‘Supernatural.’ They really protect their stories because they don’t want any leaks.
I’m terrified of the supernatural things, which is why I’m very grateful that I don’t see things like that. Because if I did see things of the paranormal persuasion, I don’t think I’d be able to continue making scary movies.
When I am writing, I do not distinguish between the natural and supernatural. Everything seems real. That is my world, you could say.
The supernatural is ubiquitous in children’s entertainment, from Grimm and Hans Andersen to Disney and ‘Harry Potter.’
It is often said that science must avoid any conclusions which smack of the supernatural.
It seems so easy to write about some normal event and twist it a little bit to make it into a supernatural event.
And yes, there’s a big difference between playing a negative role in a family drama and a supernatural show. Being an actor, I have to take such risks.
Basically, Urban Fantasy means D&D in New York. Ordinary people have no idea that they share the world with fantastic, supernatural creatures. It can’t just be vampires or werewolves; it has to be a whole continuum of fantastic beings, with their own society within society.
‘Find Me’ I think, is brooding in a very literal sense of the word in that you have all of these sort of interior storm that’s growing within Joy over the course of the book and leading her to her moment. And certainly, I think there’s an aspect of the supernatural.
I think A Midsummer Night’s Dream would be terrific because of the transformations that occur. Or The Tempest, things like that. Extraordinary larger than life or supernatural element.
The more frightening and sort of dark and oppressive a movie is, the more free you are to explore the supernatural and explore faith. The two just somehow go hand-in-hand really nicely.
Like all alchemists, Trump seeks to convert dross into gold, to toss a broth of his incompetence, denial, delay, deception, and failure into some supernatural alembic and extract political advantage.
I am living and having supernatural experiences. A lot of people get really freaked out about that. I speak in tongues; I’ve been baptized in the Holy Spirit.
I’d like to quit the supernatural roles and play just an interesting, down-to-earth person.
In any authoritarian society, the possessor of power dictates, and if you try and step outside, he will come after you. This is equally true of Sovietism, of China and of Iran, and in our time it has happened a lot in Islam. The point is that it’s worse when the authoritarianism is supported by something supernatural.
In my own life, I think legends of supernatural, mythic things are really just a manifestation of the collective unconscious. So I don’t really get freaked out. I mean certainly, you read about things people did to each other in the pursuit of some mystical or occult goal, and it’s horrifying. But that’s just human nature.
Whatever the scientists may say, if we take the supernatural out of life, we leave only the unnatural.
I did ‘Hawa’ to understand what ghosts and the supernatural are all about. I don’t believe in them and wondered how I could essay a part in a project I don’t necessarily understand.
The border between the natural and the supernatural, religion and philosophy, may not always be clear. But there are lines, and we should know and accept which side of it we are on.
I am not scared of ghosts. I don’t believe in ghosts or in the supernatural.
The greatest question of all is whether our experience on this planet is ‘it’ or whether there is something else. Things in the supernatural realm give support, strangely perhaps, to the things we take on faith.
As a kid, I was more scared of the supernatural stuff and ghosts and goblins and the Crypt Keeper from ‘Tales from the Crypt.’ I was always scared he would chase me up the stairs, as a kid.
I joke and I say, ‘I need to go back to make a supernatural horror film just to so that I can make a movie that’s grounded again.’
Within a five-month period, I got ‘Weeds,’ ‘Supernatural,’ and ‘Grey’s.’ I think a lot of it had to do with luck.
I’ve always been intrigued by the supernatural.
To me, Shakespeare uses the supernatural elements to reveal his character’s inner desires and fears.
In every religion there is an element of the supernatural, varying with the influence of pure reason over its devotees.
Even the slightest deja vu are supernatural incidents.
Sam and Dean Winchester sitting on the top of the Impala sharing their feelings over a beer is a reward worth driving any ‘Supernatural’ demon away – but in real life, they’d have crippling co-dependency issues.
I love supernatural stuff. ‘Battlestar Galactica’ was my favorite show.
I was brought up by a Marxist rationalist stepfather, so I don’t believe in the supernatural or religion or horoscopes, and the absolute nature of death is quite helpful for me. My husband was there, then he wasn’t.

The belief in a supernatural source of evil is not necessary; men alone are quite capable of every wickedness.
I had a great time working on ‘The Gates,’ and that was my first real experience doing supernatural television, working with the special effects and everything that goes into making a supernatural show.
If you come on the set of ‘Sleepy Hollow,’ and you go, ‘So, is this a ‘Once Upon a Time’ spinoff?’ That’s right when we start slappin’ people. It’s right then. Now if you came on the set, and you were like, ‘I like this show. It kinda reminds me of ‘Supernatural,” that gets you a high five.
I think it’s important to realize that we’re all just human. I mean, nobody is supernatural.
There’s something about a supernatural universe that you would think would actually make it easier to create tension and build conflict and have big scares and big ideas and big sequences. And that’s true in a lot of ways. You can pick the best idea out of a hat.
I’m a sucker for gag reels and teaser trailers for new seasons. One of the great parts of panels, especially on a show like ‘Supernatural,’ which can be so dark, it’s fun to get up there and laugh and remember we’re only telling a story. Seeing Eric Kripke and Ben Edlund up there being so funny always makes me laugh.
Even though I don’t necessarily believe in everything that’s supernatural, I like being scared and I like things that are suspenseful.
I mean, horror films in general put humans in these awful supernatural or horrible situations, but ‘Cabin In The Woods’ cranks it up a few notches and becomes outrageous and totally bizarre.
Only the supernatural love of God through changed lives can solve the problems that we face in our world.
I feel like if you boil supernatural ghost films down to their core essence, they’re really about death.
I believe that there is a simple demand and supply rule that works on television. While many are hooked on web series, some enjoy non-fiction. Similarly, there are people who love watching supernatural genre.
These ‘Supernatural’ conventions are such a great time. The fan base is like none other, and I’m sure I’ll never experience a fan base that support is the same with – their kind of unbridled decency towards the actors makes me not have to worry about going into the crowd.
Compassion has no place in the natural order of the world which operates on the basis of necessity. Compassion opposes this order and is therefore best thought of as being in some way supernatural.
