  ABSTRACT: We propose a surreal spin theory. Our basic mathematical tools are the dyadic rational number which is one of the key mathematical notions in surreal number theory. We argue that from the perspective of such surreal numbers, bosons and fermions, and therefore supersymmetry, are mere particular cases of a very much larger dyadic spin structure which include -spin (semionics), -spin and in general -spin, with m odd integer and n a positive natural number. Finally, we conjecture that this development could imply the existence of a surreal superstring theory.
