Pop-horror is an internet aesthetic and artistic movement that blends elements of bubblegum pop, YA, and pastel/soft aesthetics with horror.
Although the broad parameters of "pop-horror" may encapsulate many works of film, music, and literature throughout the ages, pop-horror is mainly thought of as a contemporary, online phenomenon. The term "pop-horror" was first coined by the internet artist's collective Count the Clock.
The common "pop" elements used by pop-horror include pastel colors (especially pink and blue), high-school iconography (cheerleaders, prom queens), and the use of bubblegum pop music. The "horror" elements commonly employed include gore and stylized violence, as well as psychological themes such as paranoia and the uncanny.

Mascot Horror refers to a subgenre of the horror genre of video games that emphasizes its use of elements that primarily appeal or are meant for a younger demographic. This includes things such as themed restaurants, amusement parks, toy factories, elementary schools, and other things that start out ordinarily as child-friendly, but have a darker twisted point beneath the surface.
The most common feature of it is the "mascot", a bankable large creature that is typically hostile and serves as the face of the franchise. This creature is typically not human and easily recognizable. Other elements that are involved include lore related to children, such as using the toys to remain young forever, experimenting on children, and so on.

If you're making a horror game, mascot horror might be the way to go, since kids will like it and the adults might enjoy playing it with them.
