This might not be what you're looking for, but have you heard about infrasound? Sounds with frequencies less than 20Hz, so less than what is typically audible to humans. However some people can still detect it, and often report feelings of unease / fear. It has been attributed as being the potential cause of several ghost stories and haunted houses.
Wikipedia has a decent article on it.

>> Hi Guys,

This is all in the horror genre. I have had to gather some horror sounds to work with but I would also like other peoples opinion on what is considered a scary sound to them. By the end of my fourth year I will hopefully have an installation here at my university, where the listener sits in a dark room, 3D sound, so speakers on high, mid and low level of the walls, and a narrative sound design playing around them.
>> So my question is to you, what is a sound that you find chilling/scary?
>> I would appreciate any feedback you could give me.
>> Kind Regards,
