* EndsWithASmile: While not always spoiling a happy ending, this spoils how a work ends and usually something about the characters.

* SpoilerHound: People who look for spoilers, or even go out of their way to find them.

Either way, be wary of reading examples in these tropes, as these are the most spoilery tropes you'll ever get. You've been warned [[IndexAllAlong all along]].

Some tropes just have {{Spoiler}}s built into them. It's either because they specifically deal with spoilers in fiction or because they give away the endings or very important twist (like which important characters live and die just in one instant) of their works, so even naming these tropes along with a work is a spoiler in itself. This means that ALL examples on the respective trope pages are a spoiler by default, without exceptions.

#It must give away important plot points about the resolution of the main premise of the work - usually either an ending trope or a twist trope, so minor plot points and story arcs cannot qualify

'''Note:''' This list had huge issues and needed some massive rework. Don't just add tropes that could be spoilers or even that often are spoilers or any random death, ending, plot twist or even adaption trope (there are other lists for that). ''ONLY'' list tropes that fulfill '''ALL FOUR''' requirements. Also, '''check the discussion page''' before adding or removing anything.

#It must give away HUGE plot points about the resolution of the main premise of the work, so it should be both an ending trope AND a plot twist trope at the same time (death trope optional), so minor plot points/story arcs don't count.
#The trope cannot happen in the exposition of a work or the introduction of a character (this often is the reason why death tropes fail to make this list) [[note]]for example, a trope like HalfTheManHeUsedToBe would be a massive spoiler on a character page if it's an important character and happens near or at the end of the series BUT it also can happen from the very start (like a group of characters find such a person lying around in e.g. a post-apocalyptic wasteland)[[/note]] and may not be an OmnipresentTrope, that means it must surprise the audience.
#It must immediately tell you the outcome of the work and/or change the tone or even genre of the work and you will never be able to see the work in the same light again after you have read the spoiler. To test this, imagine the trope page and check if all listed examples are spoilers by default. If not, don't add it.
#There is no more explanation necessary, just the appearance of the trope on the work's list is a spoiler in itself. To test this, take a random show and imagine you know that absolute basic premise and this trope is appearing as a Administrivia/ZeroContentExample in the Main or characters section. If the show is immediately spoiled now (reading the example text is not necessary), it belongs on this list. If it needs further elaboration, it does not, and you shouldn't add it.

Either way, be wary of reading examples in these tropes, these are the most spoilers you'll ever get. You've been warned [[IndexAllAlong all along]].

* TheyDo: Two characters are promoted to an OfficialCouple.

* WhamEpisode: When a work has dramatic moments or crucial plot twists that permanently affect the characters. Hard to list examples without giving away spoilers.
