There was a movie back in the 80s titled Pinocchio and the Emperor of the Night. A "sequel" more or less to the Disney film. There are a couple instances where humans gets turned into wooden puppets and it's unsettling as fuck.

I am a girl. I like reptiles and horror movies and science fiction and comics and TTRPGs, and for my entire life, every time I have entered a space, I have had to prove that I didn't "steal" it from the person* it rightfully belonged to. (*Boy, then man.)
