Dramatic Irony is when the audience knows something the main character doesn't. For example, If the camera zooms inside a closet and shows the monster, then you see a character walking up to open the closet, then that's dramatic irony!

dramatic irony is a stylistic device that is most commonly used by storytellers, in plays, in the theater, and in movies.
