Horror ensurance
 
Hello, All.

May be General Forum isn't best place for it. Please, tell me if so.
I run a site dedicated to horror insurance. Plese check it out: Horrance.com
I don't ask you to buy anything, i just ask you to give me some feedback: do you think it's interesting or no?

Of cource, it's a joky insurance and real goals of the service are fun for horror-fans and horror gifting.

Hi there, you are from Russia so I respectfully assume that English is not your first language.

The word I think you are looking for is "insurance"

Such as in motor vehicle insurance, home and contents insurance (ie a policy you buy to protect you against certain eventualities).

Ensurance does not exist as a word. There is a website that is called (I believe) ensurance.com, which is an online insurance site. But ensurance is not a real English word.

The only difference is if you have a life policy - this is called "life assurance" instead of "life insurance" because there is no question about the possibility of it needing to be paid out - everyone eventually dies, so a certain eventuality is "assured" on the loss of life.

Hope that helps you.
