doomsday prophecy
End-times forecast

Such prophecies appear across religious traditions and secular movements alike, typically warning of divine judgment, cosmic catastrophe, or human-caused destruction.
The term carries skeptical connotations—failed doomsday prophecies far outnumber any that could be verified: Another doomsday prophecy came and went without incident.
