Terrorens hus (ungarsk Terror Háza Múzeum) er et museum i Ungarns hovedstad Budapest. Det ligger i Andrássy út 60 og behandler en mørk epoke i Ungarns historie.

Bygningen som museet ligger i, var hovedkvarter og fengsel for den kommunistiske statssikkerhetstjenesten, og under det kommunistiske diktaturet ble mange mennesker forfulgt, torturert og drept i huset. Før kommunistene overtok den, var bygningen sete og fengsel for det ungarske sikkerhetspolitiet under Pilkorspartiets styre.

Da den konservative politikeren Viktor Orbán var statsminister i Ungarn (1998–2002), ble ønsket om et museum for ofrene for det kommunistiske diktaturet stadig sterkere. Bygningen ble kjøpt av en stiftelse, og i 2002 ble museet åpnet.

Museet består av to deler: én til minne om ofrene for det fascistiske Pilkorspartiet som hadde makten i Ungarn en kort periode 1944–1945, og én til minne om ofrene for kommunistregimet. Den faste utstillingen i den sistnevnte delen har basert seg på fortellergrepet å vise fram, i lyd og bilder, kommunistregimets selvfremstilling satt opp imot den mer brutale realiteten.^[1]^[2] I tillegg til de faste utstillingene arrangeres det også midlertidige utstillinger.

Museet ledes av dr. Mária Schmidt. Museet har blitt kritisert for at museets framstilling er synonymt med historieforfalskning. ^[3]

Sitat: «The House of Terror in Budapest offers a very different experience. Located in a large fin-de-siècle mansion that successively housed the secret police headquarters of the Nazi Arrow Cross during World War II and the Hungarian Communist Party in the following decades, the museum is both a historic site and an exhibit experience. The experience begins before entering the building, as the shadow of the word "terror" from the signage is cast on its facade. Inside, the atmosphere is made oppressive with discordant music and galleries that are more performance art pieces than traditional history museum displays.»
