Horror Game Ideas.

It must be made only based on your very own imagination of idea itself
The other "mechanics" I can share with you though

Fogs

Hallucinations - maybe something that you can see for a second but disappears instantly after you looked directly at it

Forest - nowadays (and I'm not talking just about Slender) most of good horror games use Forests or if you wanna go classical go for blood filled hospitals and schools

Jumpscares - self explanatory. One I remember really did scared me in a New recently released game Slender: Arrival. When you stand still just staring in forint of you for several seconds you can hear footsteps. They are getting louder as ... Someone is getting closer. When they got really loud as if something can't get any closer to you, footsteps sound stops. Last thing you wanna do, is to turn around. You can troll players however. Make nothing be behind them when they turn around... But when they turn back at the front whilst being relaxed *troll face*

VERY unexpected moments - this might need to involve more people so that they can leave their comments on it

Silence - make player get scared of only hearing his/her own footsteps, and nothing else around

No hints or tips - make players try and find out themselves on how to win or survive
Force them to survive

Night... Very, dark night

Bad ending. Get best of your horror imaginations at one last piece of the game
