Spoilers

Spoilers refer to details about a plot, storyline, or key events in a work of fiction, such as movies, books, TV shows, or video games, that reveal critical information to the audience. This information can include twists, character deaths, or major plot developments that can significantly alter the viewing or reading experience. Spoilers can diminish the suspense and enjoyment for those who have not yet experienced the work, as they provide advance knowledge of how events unfold. Spoilers are often marked or warned against in discussions and reviews to help protect those who wish to avoid such revelations until they engage with the content themselves. The term is commonly used in online discussions, forums, and social media, where users might preface their comments with “spoiler alert” to signal that forthcoming information could spoil the experience for others.
