This study discusses the influence of terror on the main character's personality in four short stories by Stephen King. In Stephen King’s short stories Mr. Harrigan's Phone, The Life of Chuck, If it Bleeds and The Rat, terror occurs because of the unusual change in certain objects.

The descriptive qualitative analysis method is applied in this research. The finding posits that people affected by terror usually have psychological reactions such as anxiety/fear and curiosity. Therefore, someone tries to fight it as a form of self-defense. If an individual is constantly exposed to terror, it can potentially change one’s personality.Keywords:influence; terror; personality; main character; reaction; anxiety; curiosity; self-defense.
