Terrible Creek is a stream in western Ripley County in southeast Missouri.[1] It is a tributary of South Fork Buffalo Creek.[2]
The stream headwaters are at 36°39′31″N 91°01′06″W / 36.65861°N 91.01833°W and its confluence with the South Fork is at 36°42′07″N 90°59′44″W / 36.70194°N 90.99556°W.[1] The stream source area lies just north of US Route 160 west of Briar.[2]
Terrible Creek was so named on account of the rugged terrain near its course.[3]
