Terrible fate (4)

I believe the answer is:

doom

'terrible fate' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for doom that I've seen before include "Mood for damnation" , "__ and gloom" , "Death, destruction" , "Fate; ruin" , "In disaster" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald, the Penny Press, the Evening Standard, The Mirror, the LA Times, The Times and The Star Tribune.
