The three meddling kids: Madison Iseman, Jeremy Taylor and Caleel Harris in Goosebumps 2: Haunted Halloween.

While collecting junk one day, best friends Sonny and Sam meet Slappy, a mischievous talking dummy from an unpublished Goosebumps book by R.L. Stine. Hoping to start his own family, Slappy kidnaps Sonny's mother and brings all his ghoulish friends back to life, just in time for Halloween. As the sleepy town becomes overrun with monsters, witches and other mysterious creatures, Sonny joins forces with his sister, Sam, and a kindly neighbour to save Sonny's mom and foil Slappy's plan.

Goosebumps 2: Haunted Halloween directed by Ari Sandel and written by Rob Lieber, is based on the children's book series of the same name by R.L. Stine and is a stand-alone sequel to the 2015 film Goosebumps. The film stars Wendi McLendon-Covey, Madison Iseman, Jeremy Ray Taylor, Caleel Harris, Chris Parnell, and Ken Jeong, with Jack Black reprising his role as both Stine and the voice of Slappy the Dummy from the first film.
