Verbal Irony
You’re watching a horror movie that has

because the killer is lurking in the
shadows. They think it will be fun and
head into the woods.
Dramatic Irony
A young man lies and breaks a date with
his steady girlfriend so that he can go to
the movies with a new girl (cheater).
When he goes to buy a snack, he runs
into his steady girlfriend who is with
another guy.
Situational Irony

on the test, but we know he cheated.

Something that is ironic is unexpected.
If unexpected by a character, it’s
dramatic.
