This Statue Is Actually An NPC

Oblivion has a lot of weird aspects but today we are looking at possibly the strangest, the statues that are in fact NPCs. For some reason.

I'd fast travel somewhere random or enter a place and BAM, there'd be a mannequin standing there, frozen, completely out of place then i started seeing the mannequins in weird poses and off their places in my home but oo boy, it gets worse at one point, not only my mannequins became alive, they also became HOSTILE. I don't know why, I swear i didnt do it, i dont know what caused it, but they started chasing me around my own home and punching me to death, and my attacks would just phase through them! it was a literal nightmare, they would also pop up randomly around the world when i travelled and just harrass me with their invencibility and punches sadly, back then i wasnt so good at console commands as now, now i'd probably fix it pretty quick, i don't remember what i did back then but i think i ended up abandoning that savegame.
