Taylor Swift fans are furious.

Arriving with a series of misspelled words, many dedicated followers of the superstar felt let down by the mistakes printed on her merchandise.

Taylor Swift's immense fan base is no secret, with them zealously purchasing and cherishing her merchandise.

Recently, a fan who had ordered a piece of merch from her "Speak Now (Taylor's Version)" drop was severely let down when they found it filled with typos and misspellings.

A fan recently posted images of a poster they had received via mail. It featured Taylor in the center, and the track names for her "Speak Now" album are listed below.

However, while the main tracks were written accurately, those "From the Vault" came with numerous mistakes.

The fan was confused, writing in her tweet: "Why did I get a different litho than I ordered? But more pressingly, WHAT'S WRONG WITH THE VAULT TRACK NAMES!?"

The reactions from the audience were ecstatic, as one user proclaimed: "It's total and utter madness! Initially, they announced a release date of July 21st, yet here we are, on September 15th, finally getting our hands on it. Also, those who purchased the Speak Now Era Taylor lithograph also got a bonus tracklist poster with all the vault tracks."

Amidst the frustration of Taylor Swift's merch team having made a misprint, one fan quipped with humor: "I'm sorry I know this is so frustrating, but I am laughing so hard."

Others echoed their sentiment. In contrast, still others offered an alternative opinion.

A different perspective was given when it was suggested that Taylor had done them a favor rather than being annoyed at the mistake; they said: "Imma be honest, you're lucky."

In an exciting turn of events, the odd misprints found in Taylor Swift's vault tracks weren't typos or made-up words but coded titles intended to stop the ways from being tracked before the release of 'Speak Now TV' in July.

A Taylor Swift update account revealed some mysterious codes indicating original vault tracks from Taylor's re-recorded album "Speak Now (Taylor's Version)."

The cryptic names included Earliest Truth for Electric Touch; Wade Each Fable In LadeI for When Emma Falls In Love; Can Sun Yes for I Can See You; Cabanas Cabellero for Castles Crumbling; Facades Oat for Foolish One, and finally Tackless for Timeless.

One person left a comment on the post, expressing that it reminds them of when "Evermore" was going by the code name "Woodvale." Taylor had chosen this for her second 2020 album while it was in production.

Another voice then spoke up, saying: "It appears that the names of the vault tracks were printed on the posters that were delivered to some people today. It seems as though the design team had forgotten to change it from its code name - presumably to prevent any information leakage - thus, those are the real names of the vault tracks shipped with each poster."
