Foreshadowing is a literary technique that involves dropping hints about forthcoming events before they happen. Some examples include the witches in Macbeth foreshadowing all the awful events to come in the story; or the part in The Wizard of Oz where the house is stuck in a cyclone and Dorothy sees Ms. Gulch turn into a witch. Another example would be in The Twilight Zone episode where the woman sees the sales lady who rang her up being trotted past her as a mannequin.
See THE BOOK THIEF by Marcus Zusak for a classic (if a little obvious) example of foreshadowing in chapter 1, also 1984 by George Orwell (depending on how you analyse it) and the Lord of the Flies by William Golding in chapter 5.
