Indirect horror or making the player imagine this stuff by himself is way more effective, in my opinion.

your right and I agree, imagination is more fear driven then what we see
and this isn't directly thrown into the players face, the camera isn't going to follow any of this around, but sometimes you cant drive on imagination without a visual shock, have you ever seen a gore site? imagining what they could be is one thing, but seeing them is another whole level

Edit: The goal of a visual thing is to shock the player and make them disgusted, it also puts a more firm idea of the horrible thing in comparison to never seeing it, much to the same effect of having those torture rooms in amnesia where you saw what happened after
while using the players imagination to create fear, so having something chase you, creates shock from it chasing you, and fear from imagining what will happen when they catch you
