The presence of Mysterious Mist is a sign that there is something magical or supernatural about a certain place at that time. The mist itself is neutral, with the type of magical or supernatural event swinging it one way or the other. It comes in a couple of forms. Most common, is mist appearing with or preceding some form of magical or supernatural event. This is frequently the opening of a portal or gateway between our world and another, with or without the appearance of a being of that world. In this case, the mist is most often merely a by-product of the magic used. The mist can also come permanently attached to a location, regardless of the surrounding weather. Usually hiding a location that is magical itself and/or contains something magical. Valleys, islands, ancient forests, magical villages/cities and combined places of magic/worship are all particularly susceptible to this. This mist frequently has unnaturally straight edges. Sometimes, rather than being influenced by magic, it is naturally occurring mist that is emphasised to add to the atmosphere of a scene. It is not connected to magic itself, but tells the viewer (and the occasional Genre Savvy character) that it is a suitable time and location for something supernatural or mystical is about to occur. This is most frequently found in locations such as graveyards. On rare occasions, this type of mist will apply even if there is no actual magic or supernatural events involved; in this case it will be as though magic were used (ie. The Cavalry galloping out of the mist at the crucial moment). The Mist is often also referred to as fog, vapour or even cloud. The disappearance of any Mysterious Mist can be just as important as its presence, particularly if it is fixed to a location;this shows that whatever made the location mysterious and magical has now been removed or revealed. Compare Empathic Environment, and the more sinister version of Mist Ominous Fog; also Smoke Out. Contrast Fog of Doom where the fog itself is actively dangerous, and Super Smoke. May be used to provide Fog of War. When in England or London, see A Foggy Day in London Town. Examples |

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess: Not really mist, but... at one point, you need to acquire a particular smell before heading into a blinding snowstorm. If you go in without knowing the smell, you are returned at the very edge, implying you lost your way. The Faron Woods also have an evil purple fog falling on it that damages you, forcing you to use items and magic to either dispel or go above it. | |

In Sunless Skies, Worlebury-juxta-Mare is surrounded for miles by thick banks of cloud. You might be able to convince yourself it's sea fog, what with the creak of boats and seagulls on the wind. Anything which might suddenly appear and glare at you is probably just your imagination. | |

Mistborn: Strange mists come out every night without fail. At first glance they appear similar to mundane mist, but weather and temperature have no effect on them, and they won't enter buildings under any circumstances. The skaa believe that the mists steal souls, which is why the nobles don't need to guard them—no skaa will ever go out at night. The nobles themselves believe that the mists have some connection to Allomancy, the rare magical power they sometimes possess, but even then most nobles are disturbed by the mists. Kelsier insists that the mists defend the righteous, and declares himself "Lord of the Mists" to enhance his reputation. When he dies, this reputation helps the skaa brave the mists for the rebellion. In the second book, the mists start getting stronger, lasting longer and longer throughout the day, and even attacking people. The heroes realize that this is the "Deepness" that the Lord Ruler claimed to have defeated a thousand years ago. The attacks are by far the least dangerous effect; growing food in the World of Ash is already difficult, and with the mists blocking out the sun for longer and longer, it will eventually become impossible. In the third book, it is revealed that the mists are actually a manifestation of the power of Preservation, one of the two Shards on the planet. They were attacking people to force them to Snap, awakening their allomantic power. Ruin, the other Shard, enhanced them to block out the sun as part of his plan to free himself and destroy the world. |

Silent Hill: All of the towns are enveloped with thick fog. It's not certain if said fog does anything, but given that it's, well, Silent Hill... the mist originates as a practical solution to a hardware problem in the first game; the original PlayStation didn't have the power to adequately render a whole town, so the developers filled it with mist to facilitate this. The effect proved so chilling that it was maintained even when more powerful systems became available. | |

Ruidean in The Wheel of Time is an ancient city shrouded by fog in the middle of a desert. Aiel who wish to become clan chiefs or Wise Ones must enter the city to learn the confronting truth of their race's past; not all survive. The mist is dispersed during Rand's battle with Asmodean just after Rand reveals the truth to almost the entire Aiel population. The mist vanishing symbolises the loss of secrecy. Also, mist appears when the Heroes are summoned with the Horn of Valere. Finally, there's the evil mist of Mashadar, which can form tendrils to attack people. In its strongest form, it absorbs the soul of any creature that enters it, controlling their body as a puppet. |

There are several places in the Pokémon games that have this. You're completely lost in it if you don't bring a Pokemon that knows Defog with you. One place that particularly fits this trope is a tower in Platinum. It's a burial place for departed Pokémon, and the upper levels are shrouded in mist. The move Misty Terrain, introduced in X and Y is a Fairy-type move invoking this trope. It prevents status conditions, such as sleep, poison, etc., on all grounded Pokémon and halves the power of Dragon-type moves from grounded Pokémon. |

Ravenloft takes this trope and turns it into a fundamental part of the world. The Mists of the setting is a supernatural force controlled by the Dark Powers (or maybe are them) that can rip creatures, items or even entire nations from the prime material plane and take them into the mist, where they form supernatural Domains of Dread. Entering the mist is (usually) not dangerous in itself, but unless you have a Vistana's power to traverse it, there's no knowing where you might end up. | |

Granblue Fantasy has Tramont island, though that name was forgotten long ago, and it is only referred to as the mist-shrouded island by the time the game takes place. It has a small village that is populated by zombies who are kept from dying or leaving by the same supernatural entity that also brought the fog. When the entity is defeated, the fog clears, although it is later shown to re-appear periodically. This hints that the island may have retained a subtle connection to the Otherworld. | |

Goblins in the Castle: The North Tower of Toad-in-a-Cage Castle is enveloped in mist, signifying the spell that keeps the spirits of the goblins trapped there. The first time William sees the outside of the Tower after the goblins are freed, the mist is gone. | |

Doctor Who: Mistfall is a time of fear and hiding for the Terradonians marooned on Alzarius in "Full Circle". It's when the dreaded Marshmen appear and roam the forests and all of the Terradonians retreat and seal themselves inside their crashed starliner. In "The Curse of Fenric", mist on the sea presages attacks and the arising of the Haemovores: the Vikings whom the curse followed from the Holy Land were terrified of a Black Mist that followed their longship all the way to Northumbria. |

A possible variation in the short-lived animated series Father of the Pride: Sigfried and Roy, who are extremely talented showmen and are capable of using actual magic, use mist from a (sometimes) undetermined source to initiate a dynamic introduction. This mist is usually followed by casual conversations with the humans in the room at the time, and (occasionally) accompanied by a tiny magic trick just to show off or demonstrate the point they were trying to make. On a more straightforward example, one episode had two up-and-coming stage magicians propositioned to be the duo's rivals, and, quite possibly, replacements. One of their advertisements showed them dressed in scarlet-red robes, chanting a spell while standing around a giant spherical object. While this is happening, mist has begun to envelop the stage they are performing on. | |

League of Legends features the Black Mist from the Shadow Isles. Originally when the lands were the flourishing Blessed Isles, a regular magic mist was formed by its denizens to hide them from the rest of the world, but after a magic disaster corrupted the lands, the Mist became a vessel of undead, tortured souls, constantly searching for more to include among them. | |

Susan Cooper's The Dark is Rising Sequence novel The Grey King uses mist a lot — it's referred to as the breath of the titular Grey King, hides his supernatural wolves in it and the King can summon mists at will. | |

Interview with the Vampire (2022): In "In Throes of Increasing Wonder...", after Lestat de Lioncourt is struck by Cupid's arrow when he first beholds Louis de Pointe du Lac, a mist abruptly appears behind him with an audible whooshing sound. This shot is imbued with a mildly ominous atmosphere, and it imparts to viewers (especially those who aren't familiar with either the source material or the 1994 movie) that this Mysterious Stranger (Lestat's identity isn't spelled out in this scene) isn't human and is dangerous. | |

The move Misty Terrain, introduced in X and Y is a Fairy-type move invoking this trope. It prevents status conditions, such as sleep, poison, etc., on all grounded Pokémon and halves the power of Dragon-type moves from grounded Pokémon. | |

In the BBC's production of The Hound of the Baskervilles, Holmes, Watson and Lestrade are waiting for the titular hound to be released when a fog rises, obscuring their vision of the area. The mist is natural (the story does take place in England), but since the creature they're waiting for has a long and mysterious past associated with it, the mist not only presents a practical problem, it also adds to the tension of the moment. This is also the first time the creature will be clearly seen (an earlier appearance engineered by the villain was very brief and intended to instil fear in the viewers), so the impending revelation adds to the emotional weight of the moment. | |
