Horrifying, sensational (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lurid

This clue is a double definition.

'horrifying' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'sensational' is the second definition.
(similar in meaning)

(Other definitions for lurid that I've seen before include "Glaringly vivid and graphic" , "In glaring colours, shockingly vivid" , "Explicit" , "Horrifying - sensational" , "Shockingly sensational" .)
