a Mascot is any human, animal, or object used to represent a group with a common public identity.

Mascots are also used as fictional, representative spokespeople for consumer products

In the case of HN it's mostly because he's a recognizable antagonist who serves as the "mascot"

Here's a definition I consider fits perfect :

"Mascot Horror is subgenre of horror that's focused around the idea of taking children's mascots, and subverting the initial purpose of them by turning them into monstrous killers, either tragic or not."
