Horror tends to be shock at something scary whilst terror would be fear for one's self.

That's how I see them.

For me horror is like "Oh, that is fucked." while terror is like "Fuck. Fuckfuckfuck."

So uhm.. horror is a deep understanding of how something is messed up or scary. Like a psychological movie is horrifying. Terror is an outright panic. So messed up that you can't think straight.

Horror is watching someone take a sledgehammer to the testicles.
Terror is the realisation that you're next in line. :eek:

lmao, I don't actually have testicles but I'm pretty sure I'd be terrified anyway.
