I received my first Goosebumps book for my seventh birthday in 1997, and I was hooked from then on, I recently found my huge collection of Goosebumps in my loft and remembered how they got me into reading.
One of the books I hadn't read as a child, was Night of the living dummy, and so I bought it for my kindle!
Even being 21 I enjoyed this book, and the idea of Ventriloquist dummies coming to life is creepy to anyone! The book has the usually brilliant twists and turns that goosebumps books are famous for, and the way that Mr. Wood is finished off is brilliant!
Reading this as an adult, the only annoying things were the over use of the word "totally!" (but this is a book aimed at american kids, so we can let that slide) and the fact that Lindy got away taking the joke to far.
This isn't the scariest Goosebumps book (the scariest book is welcome to the dead house) but it has the most famous goosebumps character... Slappy the dummy!
Also, incase you didn't know, they made a goosebumps TV series, which you can watch on youtube and watch Slappy the dummy running riot for real!

I chose this book because it looked exiting, I was right it is a fantastic Book. I gave it a 5 star rating.
I liked everything about this book, the thrills were the best bit. When Mr wood grabbed barky by the neck, I knew Mr wood was going to strangle barky, but Lindy and Kris saved barky.
I would recommend this book to my friend Kathie Mark because she loves scary stories.

This book is one of the best books, if not the best, of the Goosebumps series. I read it when I was young and now I bought it again to relive tha anxiety and thrill I had encountered the first time. I would recommend it to everyone, especially to Goosebumps fans who haven't read it yet.

I used to read and watch Goosebumps by the ton when I was younger and only recently thought about the first horror that got me initiated and addicted to my favourite genre.
Of course, I found this beauty which was one of the first I'd read. Reading it now, it's nostalgic and for someone who might be reading for the first time with reading difficulties, its a perfect way to learn.
I'd highly reccomend it to fans or to those who want an interesting and easy read. Mind you, it is a very short book.

The night of the living dummy (horror)
This book is about two twins and one of them finds a ventriloquist dummy in a dumpster and decides to save it, so she says. Then strange and scary thing start to happen. Is the dummy coming alive or is it just a coincidence that the dummy slapped Kris on the face or has the creepy dummies wish come true? Other strange scary things start to happen and it couldn't be the dummy's fault, could it? This book is bone chilling and you are bound to go screaming out of your wits. What will they do, will they died from a terrible death or will they defeat the evil ventriloquist dummy. Who knows? You have to read it to find out. (know wonder the dummy was in a dumpster) if you liked this story then the ideal book for you will be SAY CHEESE AND DIE) you should also look out for all the Goosebumps books. They are bound to make you scream. These reviews have been done by 10 and 11 year olds

You should always expect the unexpected!
Not one of Stine's best, but still worthy of a read. It is about a dummy that comes alive, when you least expect it. Read more
