The Redemption of Mascot Horror.

Mascot horror isn’t dead - yet.

In my last video, “What Happened to Mascot Horror,” I talked about how the genre lost its creativity and turned into a overused formula. But this time, I’m doing the opposite — shining light on the games that are actually doing it right.

From Indigo Park to My Friendly Neighborhood, these are five mascot horror games that prove the genre still has heart, creativity, and plenty of scares left. Each chapter dives into the community’s thoughts, my personal take, and finally, a full ranking.

Note: The title of the video used to be “Mascot Horror. The Secret Sixth Chapter.”
