Suspense is the feeling that something is coming and you can't stop it - that's a great thing for a horror story because the reader knows that the character is in danger, but can't do anything about it except keep reading. Imagery is showing the reader a vivid picture of what's going on, also a good thing for a horror story. Finally, conflict and tension are the result of the character wanting something and having something else get in the way of achieving that goal.
An author writing a psychological suspense often uses mental activities to develop the plot, such as exploring characters' thoughts, feelings, and motivations to create tension and suspense.
