Huggy Wuggy Mascot Popular With Kids

Huggy Wuggy mascots are being sold at a souvenir shop in the Old Town in Krakow, Poland on May 19, 2022. Huggy Wuggy, a scary character from Poppy Playtime survival horror game and extremely popular amongst children, rises controversy. In the game which is addressed to children over 12, the monster hugs so tightly that the embrace can kill, and its red mouth symbolizes the blood of the victims. Kindergartens warn parents not to buy this toy for their children and some institutions have banned bringing the mascot to the classes. (Photo by Beata Zawrzel/NurPhoto via Getty Images)
