The genre of Psychological is related to the mind or processes of the mind; obstacles are mental rather than physical. Sometimes the suspense is drawn from one solitary character where they must resolve conflicts with their own mind. Usually, this conflict is an effort to understand something that has happened to them. These conflicts are made more of a struggle with physical expressions of the turmoil in the means of either physical manifestations, or physical contortions of the characters at play. 
Examples of psychological horror films are The Ring, Psycho and The Shining. We will draw on themes of this genre by not letting our audience be fully aware of the plot in our teaser trailer(by not having shots in chronological order and no spoken dialect) so they would have to watch the film to discover which character is in turmoil or whether what is happening in the trailer is even real.
