Since demons and ghosts and everything else scary come out at night (influence of the dark fae) humanity tends to live grouped together in scattered urban centers. Technology is mostly limited to simple machines people can understand (because otherwise their unconscious fears cause them to sabotage themselves...pistols tend to blow up...etc). Magic workings can reinforce the technology's stability but it's still a dubious undertaking.
A favorite of mine.

It is science fiction and thus, doesn't fit.
