* In the \\\'\\\'Series/DoctorWho\\\'\\\' episode \\\"[[Recap/DoctorWhoS22E6RevelationOfTheDaleks Revelation of the Daleks]]\\\", the Doctor visits a graveyard planet and comes across a memorial with his face carved on it. He assumes it is genuine and means he\\\'s going to die, in the past, quite soon in his own timeline; it is actually part of a trap set by Davros.
[The Doctor is visiting the future where he could be dead, so the grave is not obviously premature (even if it was a fake).]
* \\\'\\\'TabletopGame/DungeonsAndDragons\\\'\\\': In the TabletopGame/PointsOfLight setting, the Shadowfell is a dark and creepy undead-filled mirror of the real world. Where towns are found in the real world, the Shadowfell often has graveyards instead, with the living citizens\\\' names on the tombstones.
[As the graves are found within a mirror reality, it is not apparent if they are premature.]

* In \'\'Literature/AChristmasCarol\'\', the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come takes Ebenezer Scrooge to a vision of a future Christmas, where Scrooge witnesses the funeral of a rich man who is mourned by nobody. Finally the ghost shows Scrooge the man\'s tombstone; it is Scrooge\'s own. [Since Scrooge is having a vision of a future where he has actually died, the grave is not premature.]
* In the \'\'Literature/{{Discworld}}\'\', Reg Shoe has his own grave in the cemetery at Small Gods. Only, as Reg died and came back a Zombie, he\'s not yet ready to occupy it: he overnights once a year on the anniversary of his death, though. The existance of zombies seriously annoys the sexton at Small Gods, as it really messes up the paperwork when dead people won\'t bloody well stay dead and keep insisting on resurrecting themselves. [Reg died, so the grave was not made prematurely. That he came back to life as an undead does nto change that.]
