SCRIPT IN STARTERPLAYERSCRIPTS

local Player = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
local PlayAnimation = game.ReplicatedStorage.PlayAnimation --It states that its "unable to cast value to object"
local StopAnimation = game.ReplicatedStorage.StopAnimation
local Debounce = false
function onKeyPress(actionName, userInputState, inputObject)
	if userInputState == Enum.UserInputState.Begin then
		PlayEmote()
	end
end

function PlayEmote()
	if Debounce == false then
		PlayAnimation:FireServer(2471625994)
	else
		StopAnimation()
	end
end

game.ContextActionService:BindAction("keyPress", onKeyPress, false, Enum.KeyCode.E)

SCRIPT IN SERVERSCRIPTSERVICE

game.ReplicatedStorage.PlayAnimation.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Player,Animation)
	local Anim = game.Workspace[Player.Name].Humanoid:LoadAnimation(Animation)
	Anim:Play()
	game.ReplicatedStorage.StopAnimation.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(Player)
		Anim:Stop()
	end)
end)

HOW IT WORKS: Basically, it's supposed to load an animation when you press E on the keyboard.

Why are you playing animations on the server. Remotes are quite latent as it takes time for stuff to be transferred from one side to the other. Playing animations from the client will replicate, as clients have network ownership of their humanoid. It's less work for the server.

Which line is this bug occurring at? I'd rather not scour each line of code to find similarities between them to the error you've mentioned. Additionally, @theking, it's probably a bit pedantic to assume he means Script over LocalScript, I'm sure it's just something he didn't look to clarify.
