History Film / Goosebumps2HauntedHalloween

* TookALevelInBadass: Slappy now has the power to bring inanimate objects to life, also effectively giving him telekinesis as well. Justified, as he's the ''first'' version of Slappy that Stine wrote when he was a teenager.

* SequelHook: [[spoiler: The movie ends with Slappy directly telling Stine, "I always come back. ''You wrote me that way!''" before revealing he wrote a book of his own with Stine as the main character, and trapping him inside.]]

!!''Goosebumps 2: Horror Halloween'' contains examples of:

* BitchInSheepsClothing: Slappy appears amicable and even friendly to Sonny and Sam at first, taking out and humiliating their bully, Tommy, and using his powers to do their chores and their homework for them. [[OhCrap Then they find out about Tyler's accident, and realize ''exactly'' what went wrong with Sonny's science project]].

** Slappy's MookMaker power. [[spoiler: You'll notice that things affected by his power completely vanish into the Haunted Halloween book. No, it doesn't just take the "essence" of Hallowen and leave behind decorations or gummi bears: it takes ''everything'' affected completely, leaving no trace of the original thing behind. No gummi bears, no plastic skeletons, nothing. Why is this important? Because so long as Slappy is affecting it, it will ''completely'' disappear into the book; therefore, the one final book, the one he wrote himself to trap Stine in, actually works.]]

* BodyHorror: [[Slappy turns Walter, the grocery man, into a monster, and turns Sonny and Sarah's mom into an actual dummy. He even talks for her.]]
