In movies, you can do it with choosing specific tunes in the background and making sets that look eerie or by zooming in on people's faces (which was an old method). In music you can slow the tempo down and add some random high pitched notes from time to time such as those found in old horror films or classical tunes. In books, it is usually done through descriptions of the unknown or mysterious.
