"Mrs. Claus" belongs to the slasher subgenre of Horror, set against the backdrop of a Christmas-themed party, which fuses festive holiday elements with classic horror tropes. Typical elements include a group of young people (in this case, sorority students), an isolated or confined setting with a dark history, and a masked or disguised killer targeting victims one by one. What sets "Mrs. Claus" apart from other horror titles is its use of the iconic Christmas figure of Mrs. Claus as the killer’s disguise, adding an ironic and unsettling twist by subverting the traditional image of warmth and cheer associated with Christmas. This blend of holiday spirit with grisly violence creates a unique atmosphere that contrasts innocence with terror.
