Blurb
Amy is tired of being a middle child. Her older sister, Sara, gets to do whatever she wants and her younger brother, Jed, gets away with everything! Family Nights are the worst -- Sara is good at everything, and Jed makes everyone laugh. It seems like Amy can't do anything right. When Amy gets a brand new dummy named Slappy, she may finally have a chance to shine. While Amy's act with Slappy is getting better, life is getting stranger. There is something eerie about this dummy. Then, horrible things begin to happen around the house. Her family blames her, though Amy insists she is not responsible and that Slappy is! But who would believe that a wooden doll can come to life?
Differences from the book
- The accidents Slappy causes are slightly different from the book such as trying to smash Dad's guitar.
- In the book, the girls had already made a plan to take out Slappy by having Jed dress up as Dennis and have the parents hide in the closet. But in the television episode, they didn't do this.
- The book ends with them wondering who saved them, but in the episode, it is made clear that Dennis was the one who defeated Slappy. Dennis, in a Goofy-esque voice, remarks that "it's good to be back in the family again".
- Instead of Slappy's head being broken on the bedpost, it is the end of the living room fireplace.
- Instead of the worm coming out of his head, it is actually his green spirit.
- Margo's sister, Alicia, is exclusive to the television episode. The little girl is actually the birthday girl at her party.
- The scene where Slappy clenches Alicia's fingers happens at Amy's house in the episode, instead of at The Party House in the book.
- Margo blames Amy for the incident, which causes her to break off their friendship, which did not happen in the book.
