* InNameOnly: On a meta-level, this character is, personality-wise, nothing like the real R.L. Stine, save for being the author of the ''Goosebumps'' books. This was confirmed both by people who know him personally and by Stine himself, who downright admitted "there’s not one true thing in the script". The character was first written with no involvement of the actual Stine, who received the film script when it was basically completed. Nonetheless, he was given some saying on his portrayal and requested to alter some lines.

-> '''Portrayed By:''' Madison Iseman

The main protagonist of ''Film/GoosebumpsTwoHauntedHalloween''.
* BrotherSisterTeam: Sarah is this with Sonny.
* CrazyPrepared: Brings along a copy of ''Frankenstein'' disguised as R.L. Stine's manuscript, just in case. It turns out to be a smart move, as she manages to fool Slappy long enough to figure out how to use the manuscript to stop the cursed Halloween decorations.
* ItsAllMyFault: She blames herself for her mother getting kidnapped by Slappy's goons.
* NotWhatItLooksLike: Downplayed in the opening scene. When her boyfriend enters the apartment with snacks, Sarah's mom Kathy catches the two of them in the act. However, Kathy knows exactly what happened, and is still not happy about it.
* OnlySaneMan: The only member of the trio who knows that trusting Slappy is a bad idea.
* TeamMom: Sarah functions as this to Sam and Sonny during Slappy's rampage on Halloween night, especially after her real mother is kidnapped by the monsters.

* ChildProdigy: Managed to create an scale model of the Wardenclyffe Tesla Tower that functioned properly before it exploded (though Slappy did have a hand in that) and rigged the real thing to short out rather quickly.
* EurekaMoment: Has one when he realizes that he doesn't need to know how to turn off the Wardenclyffe Tesla Tower in order to stop Slappy. He can simply short it out entirely.
* EveryoneHasStandards: Sam is horrified at the idea of someone, let alone R.L. Stine, making taxidermy out of a cat.
* SensitiveGuysManlyMan: Zigzagged. Sonny is the more practical of the two friends, but he has a tendency to give in to bullying. By contrast, Sam is more of a [[TheDitz ditz]], but always stands up for himself.
* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: The first customer of their business asks them to clean out R.L. Stine's childhood home. This results in the discovery of ''Haunted Halloween'', and the resulting release of Slappy the Dummy.
* ZanyScheme: Sam's plan for creating the Junk Brothers is just one of many of these kinds of schemes.
