'''Horror''' is the fourth selectable site [[skins|skin]], released on October 27th [[2008]]<ref>{{Citation|type=blog|link=http://www.nitrome.com/blog/articles/176|title=Numbskull|name=|excerpt=|publisheddate=27 Oct 08|retrieveddate=27 Apr 15}}</ref>. All [[Nitrome]] characters featured in Horror are dressed in a Halloween fashion, in the form of monsters, zombies and vampires. [[Nitrome Towers]] can also be seen in the background.

==Description==
In the background, Nitrome Towers can be seen in a graveyard, in front of a full moon filled with dark purple clouds in the sky. Beside it, [[Magneboy (character)|Magneboy]] is seen poking out of the ground, and beside him is a zombie-like [[Guards|guard]] infested with maggots, standing. The [[red feather tribesman]] is walks away from the guard, also acting like a zombie, with maggots stuck to his head.

On the right side of the skin, [[Poly]] sticks his head out of the ground. To Poly's right is a [[Basic cyber guards|basic cyber guard]] acting like a vampire. [[Toxic (character)|Toxic]] is also seen without his visor and two orange eyes in his head area. Up in the leafless tree are both the cat and dog from [[In The Dog House]], acting like ghosts, the big hat pirate ghost, the owl from [[Fat Cat]] looking ghostly.

The [[weresquare]] also makes its first appearance, sitting on a tree above the zombie-like characters. It was an enemy for a cancelled [[Square Meal 2]] that was not mentioned until a blog post in [[2012]].

Bats are seen flying around, while one is perched amongst many graves.

==Hints==
Some tombstones hinted sequels for certain games. Next year [[Final Ninja Zero]] was released, which was hinted by the "F.N. 0RP" tombstone. Close to the end of 2008, Nitrome released [[Frost Bite 2]], the sequel to [[Frost Bite]], Frost Bite 2 being hinted by the tombstone that reads "FB?" and an image.

Featured in the skin was a character called the [[weresquare]], who was slated to appear in [[Square Meal 2]], but because Square Meal 2 was temporarily shelved and forgotten about until 2012, the weresquare was never shown outside of Nitrome.

The skin contains two fake hints, one of them being a tombstone that reads "DV 2009?", which, although hinting a Dirk Valentine sequel in 2009, was just a joke as Nitrome sometimes teased fans about a sequel to Dirk Valentine. There is also a tombstone labelled "NANOBOTS RIP", which is a fake hint for a Nanobots sequel (as Nitrome never mentioned a sequel to Nanobots).

==Hidden avatar gift==
On October 27th and 30th [[2014]], Nitrome hid two [[Avatars|avatar]] gifts in the Horror skin, obtainable only by those who had a Nitrome [[Accounts|account]]. Clicking the gift grants the viewer an avatar.

==Trivia==
* Every character appears to be a zombie in the skin, except the brain and weresquare.
*Horror and [[Factory (skin)|Factory]] are tied for having the third least amount of characters both skins having thirteen. The second being [[The Bricks |The Bricks]] having four characters, and the [[Winter (skin)|winter skin]] in fourth, having only fourteen characters (not including the two [[climber]]s).
