Slipstream

A speculative literary mode that deploys the stylistic tools of science fiction, fantasy, or horror without committing to their rigid worldbuilding conventions, creating a calculated sense of cognitive disorientation.

The thrill of a reality that feels untethered, where the familiar becomes strange and unsettling. It's the feeling of navigating a world where the ground beneath your feet might shift, and the uncanny is a constant, disorienting presence.
