Gaslamp Fantasy is a sub-genre of Historical Fiction, employing a Victorian or Edwardian setting with some fantastic or supernatural elements.

Similar to Steampunk, but without the super-science or retrofuturism, Gaslamp Fantasy employs many themes found in the Gothic or Gothic-Romantic genres, without the necessity of the macabre.

The term was first coined on April 26, 2006, by webcomic artist Kaja Foglio to differentiate her comic, Girl Genius, from conventional steampunk.
