You are named Leon. You had a Aunt who discovered that they somehow had a mansion in the middle of a forest, but had no memory of buying it. They liked you enough, so your Aunt gave it to you to be the new housekeeper.
You wandered about it for the better part of a day. It was quite homely and didn't feel lonely. So after you went back to your old home to collect your stuff to move, you sent a message your aunt that you accepted the job of being the new housekeeper.
The next day, as you drove back in your van and parked in the garage, you got a feeling that something was off. You went back and forth bringing your stuff in a fairly empty room. On one of your breaks, you noticed that the closets, dressers, and various other spots to keep in clothes had an overabundance of clothes. Women's clothes. From costumes to fancy ball dresses. Regular clothes of various eras. From the late 1800's to the 2010's.
"Weird... So much women's clothing and a lot of it's really recent.. Did someone break in and place clothes here or what?" You muttered to yourself. After a few moments, you shrugged. 'Eh. I'll just replace the locks and tell Aunt Leia that there's a lot of clothes here that either she can keep or sell.'

After you went to sleep, the closets, dressers, and all the other places with clothes opened up and the clothes flew out. In the room that you were sleeping in, some purple silk pajamas (Shirt, pants, and gloves) made their was over to where you were sleeping. They took off the blankets and discovered that you were in an undershirt and boxers. Somehow, the pajamas took them off of you and put themselves on you.
Some time later, you woke up. Realizing that you were not lying in bed, you panicked a little before a gloved hand covered your mouth. Looking around, you saw that it was your hand covering your mouth! And you were wearing some silk pajamas that you knew you didn't put on!
Eventually, you stopped and sat down in a comfy chair located in one of the mini-libraries the place had. Your eyes widened when someone walked in. Either an invisible person was wearing them or a ghost was in control of the clothes!
As for the dress, it was large red gown with a golden broach near the neck that has a green gem in it. The gown also has a high purple collar with extended purple sleeves. It puzzled you for a few moments before you recalled who wore those clothes.
Lady Tremaine of Disney's Cinderella.
"Hello. I take it that you are taking care of the house?" The dress asked, in a similar voice to the villainess.
You nodded, unable to speak because your mouth was still covered.
"Well, I and the other ghosts in the mansion are artificial female spirits, created to entertain guests in a Neo-Burlesque section of this place. We would have used various women for it, however." The Tremaine-dress explained. "However, our creator erased most of our memory of them, Leaving us only with the fact that we were created, what our goal was, and the skilled to achieve it."
Your hand then left your mouth.
"Free me now!" You yelled.
The Tremaine-dress waved a finger at you.
"Ah ah ah! Tempter-Temper, or else you will be punished," The Tremaine-dress said in a slightly playful manner. It switched to a serious tone as it said, "We need you to find women for us to use as puppets for our act. We do intend on doing it."
"For what audience? If you didn't know, were in the middle of a forest. Not a whole bunch of customers there," You said, glaring at the dress.
The Tremaine-dress chuckled. "We'll get an audience. We're on a lei-line and therefore will send out a pulse to have a ghostly audience."
A cold chill went through you, but you refused to let the dress see it.
"And if I refuse to help you with your wicked scheme?" You asked.
"Then you become our plaything. Some of us don't quite care who we control and would relish punishing the ones that disobey. " The Tremaine-dress answered in a matter-of-factly tone.
