Elder Sign
Can an investigator ability, a spell or a reroll change a Terror face so that the Terror effect does not happen?
Posters agree that changes made before the failure is settled count; no ruling covers spells placed afterwards.

Yes, if the change happens before the roll is finished: the face is then no longer a Terror result, so no Terror effect applies. A spell that secures a Terror face after the failed roll does not stop the effect, because the die was already rolled as Terror. Professor Harvey's ability can turn a Terror into a Lore before the roll is finished.
