Foreshadowing

There is a lot of foreshadowing in Lord of the Flies. A couple of the most common ones are Roger throwing rocks at Henry, which foreshadows Piggy’s death. There is also the promise that The Lord of Flies make that he will have “fun” with Simon, foreshadowing his death. Ralph told Jack in Chapter 3 that as long as his hunters kept the fire going everything will be fine. But soon in the following chapter the hunters let the fire go out, preventing them from being rescued.
