Then she began describing with hysterical emotion the effect it produced on her to see black; and started, and trembled, and, at last, fell a-weeping—and when I asked what was the matter, answered, she didn’t know; but she felt so afraid of dying!

Foreshadowing is a literary resource in which the author introduces certain elements in the narrative that have to do with the events that will occur in the future.

Writers use this literary technique to increase the tension of the reader and to maintain coherence and credibility in the plot and in the characters.
