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 antagonists, 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 found on a sheet of paper in his pocket are read aloud. Slappy, after coming to life, spends most of his time searching for a slave to serve him, most of the time the child who brought him to life. Slappy is shown to be a rude, sadistic control freak.

Slappy's past

Slappy was created by an evil toy maker named Jared Julian who brought his creations to life and sent them to murder, hurt, and steal. One night, he stole a coffin and carved Slappy and his twin brother out of it. Upon the toy maker's death, he put his magic and possibly his soul into Slappy, who was able to come to life when the spell was completed by the reading of the words, "Karru Marri Odonna Loma Molonu Karanno" all the victims were astonished while reading these words.
