There are three types of Horror:

Horror: fear coming from the threat of something scary happening

Terror: fear coming from something scary happening

Revulsion: negative emotions from something gross happening

Ann Radcliffe wrote it so it has to be true

I studied this in film class and that's not quite it. Or at least, that's not how I learned it.

Horror is something fearful but impossible or implausible. See: Alien

Terror is something fearful that could be happening RIGHT NOW LIKE THE SERIAL KILLER STANDING JUST BEHIND YOU
See: Your mom

e: Also shoutout to Yuureitou!
