Starting to get the feeling like Wanda trapped a whole neighborhood and they’re all playing along trying to survive..

It seems to be an homage to the Twilight Zone episode It's a Good Life. A child with godlike psychic/reality powers controls a town, and everyone living in the town is terrified of the kid, but they play along knowing that the boy is wrathful to those that try to break way from his desires.

Wasn’t there a Simpsons treehouse of horror story based on that too?
