The Ice Cream Man in the story is terrifying because he breaks the normal, friendly image we have of ice cream vendors. He doesn't act like a normal person. Instead of being warm and inviting, he gives off a cold and menacing aura. His truck might be painted in dark, fading colors, and the ice creams he offers might not look as appetizing as they should. He might also have some sort of dark secret or past that is hinted at but not fully revealed, leaving the children and the readers/viewers with a sense of unease and mystery.
Well, in some versions of the Scary Ice Cream Man story, the man is not really an ice cream seller at all. He uses the ice cream truck as a cover. He might be looking for children to abduct. The truck could be filled with strange tools or cages. The music that the ice cream truck plays is also distorted and creepy. The ice cream man might lurk around in dark alleys or near abandoned places waiting for kids to come close, thinking they are getting a delicious treat when in reality they are in great danger.
They're popular because they play on the idea of something that's usually associated with joy (ice cream) and turn it into something scary. It's a contrast that catches people's attention.

Then she realizes that the ice cream might be poisoned or cursed.
The ice cream machine being broken was the start of a truly terrifying ordeal. The owner of the ice cream shop noticed that after it broke, the freezer where the ice cream mix was stored would constantly open on its own. One night, as he was closing up, he heard what sounded like the ice cream machine trying to churn, even though it was clearly broken. He went to check it out, and when he got close, he felt an icy cold that seemed to seep into his bones. There were strange marks on the machine as if something had been clawing at it from the inside. He quickly left the shop and never went back, leaving the broken ice cream machine to whatever haunted it.
