About
Slappy the Dummy is a fictional character in the Goosebumps children's series by R.L. Stine. He is one of the series' most popular villains, and the star of the series' most successful plot arc, the Night of the Living Dummy saga. Slappy is a ventriloquist's dummy that comes to life when the words "Karru marri odonna loma molonu karrano", found on a sheet of paper in his pocket, are read aloud. According to Slappy, those words mean, "You and I are one now." After coming to life, Slappy spends most of his time searching for a slave to serve him (usually the child who brought him to life). Slappy is shown to be a rude, sadistic control freak who likes to pull mean pranks and frames the main protagonist(s) in each book for them. Stine has said, "I love writing Slappy because he is so rude."As revealed in Bride of the Living Dummy, Slappy was carved out of coffin wood by an ancient sorcerer. Slappy's Nightmare reveals that he has a twin brother, Wally, carved from the same coffin; however, this revelation is only a dream. When Night of the Living Dummy was re-released in a special Horrorland edition, bonus material included with the book revealed that Slappy did indeed have a brother: Mr. Wood, the primary antagonist of the book, and that the coffin wood they were made from was cursed. Mr. Wood's destruction made Slappy twice as evil, and a thousand times ruder.
Slappy fell in love with one of his owners, Jillian Zinman in the Goosebumps Series 2000 book, Bride of The Living Dummy.
It has been speculated that since Mr. Wood's death altered Slappy's personality, it is likely that Slappy may have been a kind and friendly dummy, or at least, not as mean as he is after Mr. Wood's death.
This cosplayer thinks that Slappy would have been evil no matter what. In Bride of the Living Dummy, Jimmy O'James' journal entries reveal that every toy the toymaker who built him made was made for the purpose of bringing misery to their owners. Slappy simply got worse than he already was after Mr. Wood died (though, if the Goosebumps 2000 series is disregarded, the above speculation can be made. This cosplayer chooses to go by all the books).
