Goosebumps SlappyWorld is a series of Goosebumps books written by R.L. Stine. The series focuses on Slappy the Dummy telling his own "twisted tales and scary stories," with eight of the twenty books being in the Living Dummy saga, making it the saga with the most sequels in the franchise. Slappy also occasionally interrupts the stories to provide his own commentary, addressing himself in the third-person. With the series' conclusion in 2023, it is the longest running single Goosebumps series with a six-and-a-half year run, surpassing the original series' five-and-a-half year run.

The series was first announced by R.L. Stine on March 1, 2016, during a small Q&A session on Facebook hosted by the organization Save the Children. Stine later confirmed the series on Facebook in July 2016.

The covers are similar in design to Goosebumps Most Wanted's covers, with a solid color background presented behind the character. But unlike Most Wanted, some covers feature background elements, such as Revenge of the Invisible Boy having lockers in the back. Slappy's design on the covers and logo is based on his appearance from the film Goosebumps. Joe Fria provides the voice of Slappy for all the SlappyWorld audiobooks, and has performed the character more times than anyone else in any official Goosebumps product.

Welcome to SlappyWorld, Ya Dummies!

Trivia

• Since its inception in 2017, there has been at least one book released with Slappy as the villain per year. However, the only years to not feature any book with Slappy as a character are 2021 and 2023.
• Most book titles in this series are similar to other R.L. Stine books and other media:
  • Slappy Birthday to You possibly alluding to the Give Yourself Goosebumps book Scary Birthday to You.
  • Attack of the Jack! possibly alluding to Attack of the Jack-O'-Lanterns.
  • I Am Slappy's Evil Twin possibly alluding to the Goosebumps Series 2000 book I Am Your Evil Twin.
  • Please Do Not Feed the Weirdo possibly alluding to Please Don't Feed the Vampire! or Please Don't Feed The Bears.
  • Escape from Shudder Mansion starts with the phrase "Escape from"; this phrase is incredibly common in the Goosebumps franchise, and it has appeared in the titles of many books. The first book to bear this title was the Give Yourself Goosebumps book, Escape from the Carnival of Horrors.

    

    The Invisible Boy's Revenge as it appears in the Goosebumps movie.

  • Revenge of the Invisible Boy! is a likely reference to the ending of the film Goosebumps, despite not starring the same invisible boy.
  • Diary of a Dummy possibly alluding to the Give Yourself Goosebumps book Diary of a Mad Mummy.
  • They Call Me the Night Howler likely referencing They Call Me Creature and The Howler, two books from the The Nightmare Room series, which were also written by R.L. Stine.
    • It may also be a reference to the Goosebumps HorrorLand book My Friends Call Me Monster.
  • My Friend Slappy possibly alluding to the original Goosebumps book My Best Friend Is Invisible.
  • Fifth-Grade Zombies is similar to the title of the Ghosts of Fear Street book, I Was a Sixth-Grade Zombie.
  • Judy and the Beast is a reference to the internationally famous fairy tale Beauty and the Beast.
  • Slappy in Dreamland possibly referencing either the novel Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, commonly shortened to Alice in Wonderland or the 1905 comic Little Nemo in Slumberland by Windsor McKay.
  • Haunting with the Stars is a play on the title of the reality game show Dancing With the Stars.
  • Slappy, Beware! is a play on the series tagline "Reader beware—you're in for a scare!"
  • Night of the Squawker is a play on similar book titles that use "Night of the" in their title, but is also a possible reference to the title of the 1972 horror film, Night of the Lepus.
  • Friiight Night shares a similar title to the '80s horror movie series Fright Night. It also resembles the title of the seventh book in the Ghosts of Fear Street book series, Fright Knight.
