[member="Armis Vindex"] Force-fear/horror (she's not yet at Force-insanity level) without recourse to the dark side of the Force will feel more like a clever mind trick than real fear or horror.
Then it is not Force Fear/Horror. Mind Trick is Mind Trick.........it has many applications and can have a wide range of results.
Fear/Horror however is not mind trick in that it has a very specific purpose............to cause harm.
A mind tricked person may never know they were mind tricked much less feel any after effects once it wears off. However with Fear/Horror not only is the person aware of what is happening once it takes effect they largely remain effected by it long after the active effects wear off.
In the case of higher levels, especially Insanity, it can reduce the target to a catatonic state which in extreme cases can be permanent.
Keeping in the OOC nature of my comments in this thread. You pissed off a bunch of Mandalorians trying to doing things IC you didn't understand and now you are trying to teach Jedi Dark side abilities and passing them off as not or less than dark side.
If I could pass on to you good nature intended advice put some thought and research into what you want to do before tossing up a thread like this. If need be PM a friend and tossing the ideas back and forth before trying to do it IC.
