It’s bad enough when Wikipedia has this to say about your fetish:

In “realistic” (non-supernatural) horror, the presence of mannequins or mannequin parts can be a visual cue for insanity, particularly insanity of a violent nature. Examples of this include The Silence of the Lambs, in which mannequin limbs are among the objects found in the killer’s storage unit. In Dean Koontz’s novel Velocity, a group of mutilated mannequins is found at a suspect’s house, causing the protagonist (and reader) to believe the suspect to be the shark, or at least seriously disturbed. In the television series Carnivale, the camp site of a twisted Texas backcountry family is strewn with mannequin parts of all sorts.
