testilie, horromantasy

New-to-me portmanteau words of the day (unrelated to each other):

testilie
“In criminal law, police perjury, sometimes informally called ‘testilying’, is the act of a police officer knowingly giving false testimony.”
horromantasy
I had previously heard of romantasy, a genre blending romance and fantasy, so it was immediately obvious to me that this term referred to a mix of horror, romance, and fantasy.
