Out of the three elements I believe the supernatural is more affective. When there is a supernatural element in a story it makes it way more interesting. An example would be the story Frankenstein. If the monster was just a normal person ,instead of a gruesome creature put together with decaying body parts that was brought to life,the story would have been less interesting. Its the element of the supernatural that mainly brings the reader in. Since its supernatural ,people are not used to such different ideas which brings out curiosity and interest from the readers. Another example(one I'm personally not fond of) is the Twilight Book Series. If it was just an ordinary love story it would most likely be less popular but instead there are many elements of the supernatural such as vampires and werewolfs which is why it was such a big hit.
