[edit] This article is completely false

Surely 'terror' becomes before 'horror'. E.g.: you spend a night in a haunted house and are 'terrified', you then open the closet and find to your 'horror' that there is a skeleton in it.....This is the build up of all horror films: the scary terrifying build up and then the sickening moment of horror when the monster, ghost, body, killer is revealed. Terror is the anticipation, Horror is the pay-off. Colin4C 18:30, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Not just monsters

You can experience horror waiting or other things too. For Example: "John sat in horror as the police questioned his neighbors, he didnt want to get caught for what he did."
