"Make your hair stand on end" nghĩa là gì?

Phim kinh dị "Chú hề ma quái" (IT). Photo courtesy: scαrℓєττ 

"Make one's hair stand on end" = dựng cả tóc gáy -> cảm giác rất rùng rợn, sợ hãi. 

Ví dụ 
The style, the entertainment, the sense of history and all the thrills of top-quality racing. Thinking about it is enough to give you goose-bumps (nổi da gà). Or, in other words, it’s enough to make your hair stand on end! 

A pause, then, “We don’t care, but my grown son, he won’t stay here. Not since that morning he got up early and was sitting on the staircase (cầu thang) putting on his boots. He felt but could not see a small crowd of spirits converging (linh hồn hội tụ) on him, making his hair stand on end. He ran out; never slept here again.” 

Our assessment (đánh giá): "It: Chapter Two" is not messing around (không ngu ngốc). Skarsgård, who delivered one of the scariest performances in recent memory in Chapter One, appears to have cranked the terror up (đẩy mức kinh hãi) to 11 for Chapter Two (if that last shot doesn't make your hair stand on end, then you probably don't have hair).
