I don’t know, call me weird, but I find the image of thousands of tiny gnomes covering a lawn to be kind of funny and cute. I was sort of expecting there to be something dark going on behind the gnomes, like they were made from live human remains, and when the first one broke, I was afraid that Mr. Mahlberg might make a gnome out of you two to add to his army of tiny gnomes. And that the reason there seemed to be more, was because he gets most of his victims on every Halloween or something. So I was pleasantly surprised to learn he was housing pupas.
