Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Foreshadowing increases a story’s sense of foreboding, tension, or suspense, as readers might not know what exactly is going to happen, but they know it’s going to be bad. Foreshadowing increases a story’s sense of anticipation, as readers want to know what will happen.
