Night of the Living Dummy

Night of the Living Dummy is the 7th book in R. L. Stine's Goosebumps series.

Plot
Like, some twins in real life, Kris and Lindy have a rather adversarial relationship. The explanation is that "They were closer than most sisters ever get, but because they were so much alike, they managed to drive each other crazy a lot of the time". The girls find a ventriloquist dummy in a dumpster near their house. To Kris' disdain, Lindy decides to keep him to entertain her friends and names him Slappy. Lindy's comedy routines become increasingly popular, and Kris feels jealous of the attention. That problem is solved when Mr. Powell buys her a dummy of her own from a pawnshop, and she names him "Mr. Wood".

This is also when the strange occurrences begin. Lindy and Kris come into their bedroom one night to find the dummies lying on the floor, with Mr. Wood's hands around Slappy's neck as though he'd been strangling him. Then Kris finds all the food pulled out of the refrigerator and spilled onto the kitchen floor, and Mr. Wood sitting in the middle of it. Both sisters are punished for the mess. After they clean everything up, Lindy gleefully reveals to Kris that she is responsible for all of the problems thus far. Of course, Kris is very hurt by this, but that realization does not end the story; Kris happens to find a card in Mr. Wood's pocket with some strange words written on it. Unwisely, she reads them aloud, and other things begin happening beyond her control. When she tries to perform her act in front of her elderly neighbors, Mr. Wood yells out vicious insults at them all by himself, and everyone thinks Kris was responsible. This is also the situation at a school concert, where Mr. Wood again insults Kris' music teacher and vomits green liquid onto the entire crowd. This leads to Kris being suspended from school.

In the TV series she wakes up in a dream an finds Slapy right next to her and then it ends.

Tagline
