* If a ship [[SettingAsACharacter can qualify as a character]], then ''Film/Titanic1997'' does this, with its FramingStory - and a [[ForegoneConclusion basic knowledge of history]] - setting up right away not only that the ship ''will'' sink, but even ''how''. It's this sense of grim inevitability, as in a Greek tragedy, that creates most of the narrative suspense.

* In the {{Epigraph}}s that open each chapter of ''Fanfic/AThingOfVikings'', some entries include birth and death dates for major characters--some of them decades in the future, telling us that they ''won't'' die during the course of the fic (for example, Empress Theodora dies in 1068, over 20 years from the events of the fic). Likewise, there's mention of [[spoiler:Tuffnut and Mór]]'s wedding having to be postponed multiple times before they finally marry in 1054, telling us that something will interrupt their wedding planned for Fall 1043.
