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]
• Sergeant Squash: My orders are to guard this porch!
• Headless Horseman: [repeated line] Hyah!

Dialogue

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]
