Horrorcore, also called horror hip hop, horror rap, death hip hop or death rap, is a subgenre of hip hop music based on horror-themed and often darkly transgressive lyrical content and imagery. Its origins derived from certain hardcore hip hop and gangsta rap artists, such as the Geto Boys, which began to incorporate supernatural, occult, or psychological horror themes into their lyrics. Unlike most hardcore hip hop and gangsta rap artists, horrorcore artists often push the violent content and imagery in their lyrics beyond the realm of realistic urban violence, to the point where the violent lyrics become gruesome, ghoulish, unsettling, or slasher film- or splatter film-esque. While exaggerated violence and the supernatural are common in horrorcore, the genre also frequently presents more realistic yet still disturbing portrayals of mental illness and drug abuse. Some horrorcore artists eschew supernatural themes or exaggerated violence in favor of more subtle and dark psychological horror imagery and lyrics.

Horrorcore, ou horror rap, é um dos subgêneros da música rap que surgiu do gangsta rap, no final da década de 80, que tem o seu lírico baseado em letras de horror, com o imaginário centrado na mesma. Ele teve origem com vários grupos de hardcore e gangsta rap, com destaque para o Geto Boys, que utilizava de termos "supernaturais" para descrever o conteúdo de seus raps violentos. O termo "horrorcore" surgiu após as letras tratarem exatamente do mesmo conteúdo de livros de horror, na época dos grupos Flatlinerz e Gravediggaz.
