AIRED: 7/20/97

Trina and Dan O'Dell's dad used to have a ventriloquist act. That's why he has all those dummies in the attic. But ever since he brought home a broken dummy named Slappy, and when their cousin Zane visits, things get pretty strange. Dummies show up in places they shouldn't, and no one admits to placing them there. Zane finally admits that he was setting everyone up, but not even Zane can explain it when Slappy appears out of nowhere...moreless

This was a great Goosebumps episode, and one of the first I have ever seen.

8.0

I liked the voices they gave the dummies Slappy and Rocky. And Slappy's jokes were pretty funny. As he was being tied up by the children, all of those wisecracks he makes cracks me up. He will shout "not the box" as they push him into the crate, as if he were a talking dog who doesn't want to go in his cage. Very funny. And the dummies phony act of the spell working was also funny. How Rocky just falls over and cries, "oh, no!" And the funniest line was when Slappy claims he's invincible, and then is hit by lightning and is destroyed.moreless

Trivia, Notes, Quotes and Allusions

FILTER BY TYPE

TRIVIA (5)
ADD TRIVIA
- If you pay close attention, you'll be able to tell when Slappy is a dummy or an actor in a costume. The costume's face stretches like rubber when the mouth moves, and it can't move its eyes or eyebrows. The dummies also have human hands when actors wear costumes.
  EDIT SHARE
- If you look very carefully as Slappy tries to squirm away from Trina and Dan as they wait for Zane, you can faintly see black wires moving his arms.
  EDIT SHARE
- Slappy is bigger in this episode (and the predecessor) than he was in "Night of the Living Dummy II".
  EDIT SHARE
- On the VHS/DVD release of this episode, the music recording is cut short, stopping before the credits are actually over, though just by an inch.
  EDIT SHARE
- Most of the "dummies" are actually dolls.
