Goosebumps 2: Haunted Halloween is a 2018 live-action comedy horror film about two young friends who find a magic book that brings a ventriloquist's dummy to life.
Directed by Ari Sandel. Written by Rob Lieber, based on Goosebumps by R. L. Stine.
Halloween comes to life.
R. L. Stine
[gets out of his car] Oh no. Not...Haunted Halloween. [sees a skeleton chasing people] Oh, my writing was so cliché back then. [sees a red balloon] I knew it! I knew I came up with that first! [sees the Tesla tower, refers to Slappy] That clever little dummy's writing his own ending. Not in my book he's not.
My first book? [holds the book] You realize I wrote this when I was around your age. More of an amateur work, really, but I'm sure you'll all agree it shows an undeniable promise of a brilliant young writer.
[about saving the world with his typewriter] It's been done before. Once before. Maybe twice. Maybe more.
The transmutation process seems to have wiped their memories clean. All those who were affected won't remember a thing.
Kids falling from the sky. My work here is done.
All the horrors of the world can't compare to the terrors of a blank page.
[finishes writing] Finally, a new book.
Slappy
[from trailer] Did you miss me?
[as he punches the windshield] I just want to be part of the family!
[repeated line] Karru marri odonna loma molonu karrano.
I had a papa once. He let me down. But a mother's love is forever.
I'm going to do what Stine couldn't: finish this book once and for all! [laughs evilly]
Spoiler alert: the manuscript gets destroyed in that tower, and my Halloween family lasts forever!
[after the credits] Slappy Halloween. [laughs evilly]
Sonny
I will never question picking up junk again.
I'm the one who found the book and brought Slappy to life, and I even told Slappy about Tesla.
Sam
"Junk" is our middle name!
[about Kathy] I've never seen your mom that mad.
Sergeant, your orders are to guard this porch.
Sarah
So you're telling me you've discovered a walking talking dummy and you didn't tell me?
It's just you and me now, Slappy!
Spoiler alert: I save the town and put you back where you belong. [Slappy stops her opening the book]
Walter
[after being possessed by a mask] Serving families is what I do.
I used to manage a hardware store. [Slappy: Walter, focus, please] Yes.
Others
Kathy: [after being possessed by Slappy] There's my sweet little babies. I just love a family reunion.
Mr. Chu: We are living a Goosebumps story right now?
Tommy: Someone beam me out of this classroom.
Gummy Bear: [as he and his brethren gets sucked in the book, he hangs on for dear life] You'll never take me alive! [Sam flicks him]
Headless Horseman: [repeated line] Hyah!
Dialogue
[Sonny's Halloween pumpkins have come to life]
Sergeant Squash: Halt! My orders are to guard this porch!
Sam: No way!
Lead Pumpkin: You like carving pumpkins, huh?! Look what you did to poor Terry!
Terry the Pumpkin: [oval-shaped with a goofy face] Hiya! I'm round!
Lead Pumpkin: Sergeant Squash, open fire!
[Sergeant Squash spits seeds at Sonny like a machine gun, while Sam grabs a trashcan lid to shield himself from the Lead Pumpkin's fiery breath]
Sam: We need to find another way in!
Sonny: No. This is my house!
[Sonny stomps on Sergeant Squash's helmet, smashing him]
Sergeant Squash: I'm hit! Medic!
[Sonny grabs the Lead Pumpkin and lifts him up]
Lead Pumpkin: Whaddaya doing?! Put me down!
Terry the Pumpkin: Hiya! Happy Easter!
[Sonny smashes them both]
R. L. Stine: Finally, a new book. [tucks in the final page] Yes. [locks the book, opens the shelf, and places the book on it]
Slappy: [offscreen] Hello, Papa.
R. L. Stine: [turns around] Slappy! I thought the book got you.
Slappy: Maybe those others, but not me.
R. L. Stine: [confused] Why is that?
Slappy: You know I always survive. You wrote me that way. In fact, I wrote my own story while I was gone. And guess what? You're the main character! [laughs evilly]
R. L. Stine: No. [Slappy opens the book] NOOOOOOOOO...! [gets sucked in]
Slappy: [closes the book] You try living in a book for a while, Papa. [laughs evilly]
