supernatural evil
Evil beyond nature
Supernatural evil refers to malevolent forces beyond natural explanation—demons, devils, curses, and dark spirits that populate religious traditions and horror fiction.
The phrase distinguishes evil attributed to otherworldly sources from ordinary human wrongdoing: The film explores supernatural evil rather than psychological horror.
It implies evil with agency and intention, often requiring spiritual rather than practical remedies.
