Series 2000. You know what that means, Slappy finally has the chance to get down and dirty. Giving a teen a bloody nose, traumatizing a room full of toddlers, and straight up assaulting his own bride/fiancée. Definitely hits the same formulaic story beats as the other Living Dummy books, yet Stine still somehow manages to keep these installments fresh and engaging.

I remember watching an episode of Goosebumps based on this book and I liked it. But I'm just writing a review to say that the parents in this book were THE WORST. Like, Jillian is scared out of her mind and calls her mother, who totally dismisses everything she's saying and cops a patronizing attitude. Really bitch? Your daughter could be dead. Ugh, I couldn't stand them.
