Is there a name for the trope where a story is high fantasy at first glance, except for it's not fantasy and is actually set in a post-apocalypse dystopian future?

I don’t think there’s a trope name for it, since the trope itself would spoil the story since this is often a twist.

Do you often go into a book or movie knowing all the tropes that exist within that story? I don’t even understand the logic here.
