😨 Fearful Face

Emoji Meaning

A face with small, open eyes, open frown, raised eyebrows, and a pale blue forehead, as if experiencing a cold flash. Samsung’s design shows upper teeth and tongue.

While intended to represent fear (less intense than 😱 Face Screaming in Fear), it also conveys a wide variety of emotions, including feeling amazed, shocked, sad, upset, and cold. Bears the same expression as 😧 Anguished Face on most platforms.

Fearful Face was approved as part of Unicode 6.0 in 2010 and added to Emoji 1.0 in 2015.
