Suspense is a narrative technique used in literature, film, and other forms of storytelling that creates a feeling of excitement or anxiety in the audience, as they await the outcome of events. It involves the gradual buildup of tension and uncertainty about what will happen next, often centered around critical moments or conflicts. Authors and filmmakers employ suspense by withholding information, introducing dilemmas, and creating high stakes for characters, thereby engaging the audience’s emotions and instincts. The aim is to keep viewers or readers on the edge of their seats, making them eager to know how the story will unfold. Suspense is a key element in genres such as thrillers, mysteries, and horror but can be found in various forms across storytelling mediums.
