Marty is a protagonist in the thirty-fifth book in the Goosebumps series, A Shocker on Shock Street as well as its television adaptation.

History

Erin Wright and her best friend Marty are big fans of the Shock Street films. Erin's father, Mr. Wright, is a theme park designer currently working on a tram ride for Shocker Studios, the studio behind the Shock Street series, and he allows Erin and Marty to test the ride out. The kids ride the tramcar, but as the ride progresses, they get into one scary situation after another. From giant mantises to an encounter with zombies that rise out of the ground, to being attacked by Wolf Boy and Wolf Girl. The two begin to suspect that the monsters on the ride aren't fake. They're real and they're deadly.

Erin and Marty eventually find themselves on Shock Street, just as a movie is being filmed. They ask the director, Mr. Denver, how to find Mr. Wright, and he mentions that they should go through Shockro's House of Shocks. Marty runs to the house just as Erin spots a power cord sticking out of the back of Mr. Denver. Before she can warn Marty, he ends up getting electrocuted. Mr. Wright shows up. Erin panics before slowly shutting down. Mr. Wright says that he has no idea why the two robot children he created starting acting out on their own. He picks up the Erin and Marty robots and takes them back to his workshop to be repaired.

In the television adaptation, as Mr. Wright works on new versions of the Erin and Marty robots, the originals come back to life and get their revenge. Despite his best efforts, he cannot shut either robot off as they tell him that even robots want to live.
