no.. because it is not all fantasy, it is not genre-specific.. like superhero fiction and the like supernatural / paranormal can be used in any and all media and fantasy is more about "magic and mystery".. things like X-Files deal with supernatural / paranormal but are almost squarely in sci-fi horror territory (X-Files does have fantasy elements but it is all linked to a very sci-fi horror over-all plot.. aliens are the main threat and the monsters / demons exist but are covered up by the NWO (which is also a sci-fi horror device) ).

that's why I think paranormal is better.. I would not class most paranormal shows or movies as "fantasy".
