Sometimes, something strange happens. A person changes into a living puppet. They sometimes can control themselves, but this is usually not the case. These puppets are often controlled by outside forces. Whether by an Eldritch Abomination or a random person who finds the cross, living puppets frequently lose control of their own actions.
It is possible for a living puppet to have full control of themself. This frequently is the case when puppets are used in a short Art Shift or the transformation is otherwise not essential to the plot.
This is commonly the work of an Evil Puppeteer, turning innocent people into puppets to use at his leisure. This can also happen when entering a Fisher Kingdom themed around Puppet Shows.
This transformation can last from a couple second to being eternal.
This is almost always a Forced Transformation because not many people want to be controlled. Compare to Demonic Dummy or People Puppets. Sub-Trope of Toy Transmutation.

This is the plot of King Diamond's 2003 album The Puppet Master. Let's just say it's more literal and grotesque than most other examples on this page.

The above quote comes from the Angel episode "Smile Time", in which the titular character is turned into a puppet. Within the episode, he fights other, demonic puppets. It also contains the line "You're a wee little puppet man!" from Spike. May or may not be a hint that he's being turned into a metaphorical puppet. (Spike later gets the same treatment in the comic Spike: Shadow Puppets when he travels to Japan where Smile Time is still popular.)

Spooky's Jump Scare Mansion:
This is what happens to the victims of Specimen 6. Multiple children were implied to have been killed and turned into puppets that look just like their living selves.
This also happened to Specimen 6 himself. He used to be a popular toymaker. However, the other merchants started failing due to customers flocking to him and rarely anyone else. They banded together and threw his puppets into the river. The toymaker dove into the river, crying about how his "children" were being drowned. He never emerged from that body of water. Although not what they wanted, the shop keepers were satisfied. It is unknown how Specimen 6 became a puppet, whether he possessed one, manifested as one in the afterlife, etcetera.

Pinocchio and the Emperor of the Night (by Filmation) and Pinocchio in Outer Space are both positioned as sequels to Disney's adaptation of Carlo Collodi's The Adventures of Pinocchio. At some point in both films, the real boy turns back into a puppet due to failure to maintain the diligence expected of a real boy.

In the second Vampire Princess Miyu OAV, the Shinma who Miyu has to fight is an Uncanny Valley Girl who transforms the students of a prestigious Kyoto private school into mannequins. She falls in love with one of them, so to prevent the Star-Crossed Lovers situation, she turns him into a Shinma — at the guy's request, because he falls for her as well even after finding out who she truly is.

In The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (2005), the Infinite Improbability Drive turns the characters into yarn puppets, due to the ship being a giant ball of yarn (complete with knitting needles). Arthur vomits yarn just as normality is reached, and his normal self is shown pulling yarn out of his mouth.

Jackie Chan Adventures has a couple episodes involving the Monkey King, an evil magical puppet who comes to life when someone pulls the puppet's leg, turning the one who was pulling his leg into a puppet themselves. When this happens to Jackie, he's revived using the Rat Talisman — but he's still a puppet. That trait ends up saving him more than once in that episode; to quote Jade, "Let's hear it for detachable parts."

This is the ability of the Doll Devil in Chainsaw Man, harnessed by an old man from Germany codenamed Santa Claus. By activating the power and physically touching someone, Santa can turn that person into a marionette-like doll, after which he can mentally control their movements as he pleases and that person is effectively deceased. Humans who touch a doll become a doll too. Since the only way to stop a doll is to put them down, and Santa prefers crowded urban areas where people are constantly bumping into each other, civilian body counts get very high when he's on the attack. Luckily, Fiends and Hybrids like Power and Denji are immune. It turns out Tolka's master, the "real" Santa Claus, has had parts of her body replaced with the puppets' heads, either because of her contract or the compensate for it. When she wants to fight directly, she can turn basically everything but her head into a large puppet by combining further.

An episode of Teen Titans (2003) has the Villain of the Week called the Puppet King, who casts a spell to put the Titans' souls into puppet facsimiles. The boys are all captured this way; Raven manages to cast a counter-spell while she and Starfire are being attacked, which lets them escape but results in them accidentally switching bodies (and thus, powers).

In Dead Silence, Mary Shaw's final wish was to have her own corpse turned into a ventriloquist doll. Also, while she was alive, she killed a young boy, Michael Ashen, and turned him into a puppet. Later, in the film's Twist Ending, it is revealed that Edward Ashen has been Dead All Along and also became part of Shaw's doll collection, and the very end of the film shows that Jamie, Lisa, Henry and Lipton are now part of her collection.

A puppet host named Peg Poett introduces six short films. As each is shown, the host becomes more human and Enola becomes more puppet-like. And the end of the show, Peg places the now fully puppet Enola in a trunk and closes the lid.

More of a symbolic example than a literal one, but the film adaptation of The Wall has Pink's Sadist Teacher being portrayed as a scrawny marionette controlled by a monstrous and hideous-looking woman, meant to represent the teacher's wife. In a particularly fascinating piece of symbolism, there's a scene in the film wherein the teacher's wife is shown beating the puppet version of the teacher with a cane, and the teacher himself is beating a doll (meant to represent young Pink) with a smaller cane.

Disenchantment: After their plot to take over Dreamland in season 4 failed, Clloyd and Becky willingly transform themselves into living puppets to escape. They remain this way afterwards, but it comes back to bite them in season 5 when Dagmar and Bad Bean toss them into the fireplace, burning them alive.

Pokémon: The Series:
Sabrina used her psychic powers to transform people into dolls while suffering from Literal Split Personality.
Ash, Kiawe, Lillie, and their Pokémon get turned into puppets during the Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon Halloween episode, though it turns out to have been All Just a Dream caused by a group of Ghost types.

Anya of Karin is fond of taking people's souls and sticking them into dolls. Near the end of the manga, she binds her grandfather's soul so that they can figure out what the hell is going on.

Legends of Tomorrow:
In "Legends of To-Meow-Meow", one of the alternate timelines Charlie and Constantine accidentally create is one where Mick left the team, joined forces with the fairy godmother, and called the Legends "puppets of the Time Bureau", which the godmother then literalised. For some reason, turning into felt puppets also makes the characters act like they're in a pre-school edutainment series.
Happens again in "Mr. Parker's Cul-De-Sac", when the team is briefly trapped inside a Mister Rogers' Neighborhood Expy and Ava and Sara are transformed into puppets for the show.
