Sound in horror films is extremely important. Sound is used in horror films to create the tension and suspense feeling among the audience and mainly to scare them which is obviously the main aim of a horror film.
Some examples that come to mind and are the most iconic movie sounds that are there to create tension and suspense, the screeching violins of psycho and the crashing cords of Jaws. These noises are unusual and are used to get your blood pumping as you can feel the attack coming.
Here is a video which involves the famous Jaws attack sound as the shark is approaching his victim the sound the gets faster and faster building up tension and suspense for the audience. With scary music you can make almost any clip scary.
A foley is a reproduction of everyday sound effects that are added to a film, video and other media in post-production to enhance the audio quality. An example of this would be from the film Jurassic Park they used tortoise noises for the dinosaur music but they slowed it down to make it sound like one.
