War is certainly terrible, although it isn't necessarily terrifying if you aren't there : http://dictionary.cambridge.org/define.asp?key=82098&dict=CALD "1 [C or U] (violent action which causes) extreme fear: They fled from the city in terror. There was sheer/abject terror in her eyes when he came back into the room. Lots of people have a terror of spiders. What he said struck terror in my heart (= made me very frightened). The separatists started a campaign of terror (= violent action causing fear) to get independence. Heights have/hold no terrors for me (= do not frighten me)."
