horrifying
Usage Note
Terrorífico is a strong adjective reserved for things that cause genuine terror — more intense than aterrador (frightening) or escalofriante (spine-chilling). The written accent on the í shifts stress to the third-to-last syllable, making it esdrújula. It is formed from terror plus the suffix -ífico (causing or producing).
Examples
"La película de terror tiene una escena terrorífica al final."
Natural Translation
The horror film has a terrifying scene at the end.
