A work of fiction may be considered post-Apocalyptic when its setting or plot features a world in which civilization as we (or the characters) know it has ceased to exist. Many of these stories are set in a near, often dystopian future, or in alternate realities.

Although the term Apocalypse has origin in Christian religion and refers to a Revelation made by God, over time the definition of the word has expanded, and may now also indicate a more secular end to an age or era (such as by plague or war).


In Supernatural Fandom

Although post-apocalyptic fanfiction (also known as apocafic) has always proved relatively popular in the fandom, there was a resurgence of interest in the genre following the revelations in late Season Two and Season Three about Sam's possible role as leader in a demonic war against humanity.
