Less is used for singular mass nouns
Here’s a tip: A good way to test that a noun is truly uncountable is to try making a plural out of it.
<u>Example:</u> I told Cookie Monster to drink fewer/less <em><u>milks</u></em> or he would get sick?
Because Milk is a liquid, we can't count it. Making 'less' the proper word choice
<u>Example:</u> I told Cookie Monster to drink <u><em>less</em></u> milk or he would get sick?

Answer:
The details that create the sense of suspense about what is to come in the story are the narrator's reactions and his words "these events have terrifiedhave tortured-have destroyed me."
Explanation:
As we can see, as soon as the lines begin, the narrator begins to warn people that he is neither crazy nor dreaming. He is describing certain events that, according to him, have been traumatizing and have destroyed him.
Our position as readers is to wait for something that will generate suspense or fear, because the author is definitely not going to describe a pleasant scene.
Those are the clues we have to deduce the details of what is to come in the story.
