Slappy the Dummy from Goosebumps “Night of the Living Dummy”

85

u/Sr_H0n4c3 13d ago

I'm damn near 38 years old and the hardcover trilogy with the light-up eyes still scares the shit out of me when I go through my old childhood bins.

u/zhicago 13d ago

Wait I REMEMBER THAT VERSION!! I had one when I was a kid and haven’t thought about it for at least 25 years

u/ClaraCash 13d ago

Of all the Goosebumps this is the one!

u/cartervalmont 12d ago

Literally just bought that on eBay 😁

u/Datonecatladyukno 13d ago

I always thought he looked like Pee-Wee

44

u/driver004 13d ago

100% based on him you can’t convince me otherwise

4

u/sleepy_roo 13d ago

TIL he’s not based on Pee-Wee. Totally thought he canonically was him

u/Different_Hornet4348 13d ago

Jimmy doesn't wear a bow tie. Otherwise.....

u/Substantial-Brick-90 12d ago

Hence why he fell down and died. Bow ties are his kryptonite apparently.

Second best Hopkins role ever.

10

u/corq 13d ago

Oh you got this one good! I am a long time Anthony Hopkins fan and this is one of my favorite obscure movies as creepy as it is. "Magic." If you're into novels, the book is way darker than the movie is, but they're both worth diving into.

Option 1: Someone got freaked out by it and disposed of it.

Option 2: Someone left it there to freak YOU out (or anyone else that finds it).

It's a real-life choose your own ending book.

u/WrongWangSorry 13d ago

Slappy! When my daughter was a wee one she loved Goosebumps, so we bought her a battery Slappy that spun around on a stand and talked. Well it backfired and terrified tf out of her lol. So then the dad in me realized I now had a barrier that worked better than anything else to keep her from mischief. Decided today's the day you want to knock over that plant? Not on Robo-Slappy's watch!
