foreshadowing 

Foreshadowing is a dramatic device in which an important plot point is mentioned earlier in the story to return later in a sinificant way. This is said by Hermione Granger in A Very Potter Musical.

Snape: A person can however be a horcrux.
Harry: What's a horcrux?
Snape: I'm no even going to tell you Harry, you'll find out soon enough.
You find out later, Snape knew there were horcruxes concerning Harry. This exemplifies foreshadowing.

Foreshadowing 

Procrastination.

Mentioning a gun at the beginning of the story and not shooting the gun until the stroy's end is not foreshadowing, it's fucking procrastination.

Foreshadowing episode one 

A twisted cousin of foreshadowing and preshadowing but closer to foreshadowing

Foreshadowing episode one occurs specifically with a flashback of events before a story set by a character later in the story, more so in a TV show or a movie, that contains subtle hints to events already shown at an early point of the story, set later than the events of the flashback.

As the flashback is set further in the past, the subtle hints count as a foreshadowing

The killer’s father in episode 5 recalls the killer’s childhood. The killer is shown as a child playing with a toy gun. This is foreshadowing episode one where the killer murders someone as an adult

Hussian Foreshadowing 

Hussian Foreshadowing is like a Chekhov's gun, yet more extreme
The use of a minor detail or menial phrase to create a major plot development later on.
named after the creator of MSPA, Andrew Hussie, who uses this many times in his work

In Homestuck, a brand of cake mix one of the main characters dislikes becomes a interdimensional empire in an alternate universe, Hussian Foreshadowing at its finest.

Goreshadowing 

When you come across a whole bunch of power-ups, health, weapons, etc. in a video game to prepare you for an upcoming boss battle.

In The Legend of Zelda you come across a room filled with vases containing health. Immediately after you face Ganondorf. That would be goreshadowing.
