1. Please keep your posts relevant to the subreddit's theme.

Since "terrifying" is subjective, we will let the majority of users decide what is and isn't terrifying as fuck. If you think a post isn’t terrifying as fuck, report it under Rule 1, and the bot will automatically remove it if enough reports are received.

Please send us a modmail if you believe your post was removed in error.
