I had a wife and a son, and the three of us were staying with an old woman (my wife's mother, I think) in a two-story cabin up in the woods, near Tahoe I think. She builds a huge bonfire in the middle of the living room, using an axe that is possessed but which cannot function when placed against a pile of wood.
However, while I am out, the wood pile animates into a large wooden golem creature. It grabs the axe and chops up grandma and our son-- well, it kills our son and injures grandma, but she wrests the axe from it and splinters off its arms and legs before expiring.
My wife and I return to find two corpses and a trashed cabin.
