Exotic probability is a branch of probability theory that deals with probabilities which are outside the normal range of [0, 1]. The most common author of papers on exotic probability theory is Saul Youssef. According to Youssef, the valid possible alternatives for probability values are the real numbers, the complex numbers and the quaternions.

Youssef also cites the work of Richard Feynman, P. A. M. Dirac, and S. K. Srinivasan as relevant to exotic probability theories.
