** Being a [[Scrapbook Story]], ''Strange Objects'' also includes diary entries written in 1986 by the scrapbook's "compiler," Steven Messenger. The diary begins with Messenger's accidental discovery of a small cache of artefacts that once belonged to Loos and Pelgrom: though most of them are quickly handed over to the authorities, Messenger succeeds in taking one- a small jewelled ring, which he keeps on a necklace. As the months pass, he begins to experience a feeling of [[Being Watched]], and frequently mentions encountering a silent "double" of himself. Eventually, Steven begins wearing the ring on his finger; according to the epilogue, he vanished from his home soon after and was never seen again.
* [[C. S. Lewis|CS Lewis]]'s ''[[Till We Have Faces]]'' has Orual break off in mid-sentence, followed by a section (in italics) saying that she had been found dead with her head on the book. Unusually, she was not writing about her impending death; once she commented at the beginning of Part II that she wished she had time to do it over, but since time is short she will just go on, she never again alludes to knowing that she hasn't got much time.
* In the last ''[[Empire From the Ashes]]'' book, Sean and friends find an ancient digital diary documenting the fall of society on that planet
* ''[[Friday the 13th (film)|Jason X: Planet of the Beast]]''. The space station crew managed to acquire a few of the logs of the ''Blackstar 13'' (a shuttle Jason had gone on a rampage in) before it crashed into a nearby planet. The last log was made by the ship's hiding and rambling cook, and ends with Jason bashing through the door, and horribly murdering him.
* ''[[The Stormlight Archive]]'' has an Apocalyptic Log in the form of {{spoiler|Dalinar's visions}}. Yes, an Apocalyptic Log {{spoiler|from God}}.
