Em dash.
Use this alloneword link to discover about em dash.

Click on the X button in the top right corner to close the current tab.

em—dash is used for effect. The em dash is perhaps the most versatile punctuation mark. Depending on the context, the em dash can take the place of commas, parentheses, or colons—in each case to slightly different effect. Notwithstanding its versatility, the em dash is best limited to two appearances per sentence. Otherwise, confusion rather than clarity is likely to result. Do not mistake the em dash (—) for the slightly narrower en dash (–) or the even narrower hyphen (‐). Those marks serve different purposes and are further explained in other sections.
