The Murderous Mannequins

Date: 9/6/2024

A man and woman had recently moved into a new & very nice neighborhood. This good looking man, Anthony, and his wife seemed to get along with everyone in town, with the exception of one cantankerous old woman. She was always yelling at them about their Christmas decorations in the yard, about their car being too loud ( despite it not being loud at all ), and just anything she could think of to yell at them for. One evening, he and his wife had returned home from chopping down a Christmas tree. After setting it up, he went into the shed to get their ornaments. As he's rummaging through boxes to find the right one, I see a pair of faceless mannequins in the corner. They're dressed like him and his wife. I notice an axe dripping blood in the mannequin that looks like Anthony's hand. Anthony finds the box he's looking for and leaves the shed. As soon as he does, the mannequins start slowly moving. Music starts playing. The mannequins, even without any mouths or anything, start singing a song about how great it is to kill, how easy it was to kill that old woman, how everyone would blame Anthony and his wife since she was always yelling at them. She was always yelling at everyone, but the rest of the town had been putting up with it for years. Shortly after Anthony and his wife move in, she's found murdered? Not only that, but she'll be found in Anthony's shed. I don't know how Anthony hadn't seen her. She was shoved into a wooden crate, her bloodied head with her gray bun sticking out of it, practically in plain sight. I am now not only watching the dream but am there a party of it. The mannequins plan on going on a killing spree. Dressed as the couple, they'll lead the towns people straight back here to find the evidence and they'll be done for. I scream and run out of the shed, calling Anthony's name. He and his wife, she in a long, pink nightie, both come out. I quickly explain what's going on. They see the mannequins and we all chase after them. I don't remember the ensuing fight, all I remember is his wife jumping into the air and bringing an axe down onto the male mannequins head. This stopped them. We all three hugged. Together we defeated the evil mannequins, and together the three of us would now be for the rest of our lives.
