Rough design for Mr. Wood

Slappy, on the phone with Mr. Wood: Wood, turn around.

Slappy: No, the other way.

Slappy: Again, the other way.

Slappy: Okay, one more time.

Wood: OH MY GOD, WHERE THE FUCK ARE YOU?!

Slappy: I’m not there yet, but the thought of you aimlessly turning around in circles amuses me.

Don't actually tell anyone if you find this. I'll be tossed in a trash compactor if they find out I'm even still hiding out in this park.

My name is Willow, but everyone calls me "Mr. Wood" for some reason..

I fix small things in the park the Staff aren't diligent or smart enough to fix themselves. If you had a decent time doing something, thank me.

Unfortunately despite my work I'm still seen as a leech. So I've been trying to get my hands on a way out of here. Any tips?

((OOC: Hello, I'm Ben! this is my new parody and sort of ask blog?? partially inspired by horrorland-guest-diservices ^^;))

Slappy and Jack Skellington because 2nd grade me was obsessed with these 2 (+bonus Slappy & Mr. Wood drama)

I was gonna make kore art of these characters since I recently got onto a goosebumps brainrot because it was bound to happen in the half a decade of hiatus.

Also if anyone’s wondering, Slappy was my first comfort character ever, and is what got me my preference for puppet characters (which yoy can see with Spamton being one of my main comfort characters now), and I'm super glad that he was my first choice as a kid, since I still adore RL Stine and he did EVENTUALLY get to be an anti hero.

I do plan on drawing this pair more, since they have a great dynamic of tall easily excited curious skelly boy and short devious mischievous puppet boy, I just find it neat!

Anyway, thanks for reading! Remember to hydrate and I hope you have a good day :)

let's hear that Slappy's Nightmare theory!

So my theory on Slappy's Nightmare, without any of my specific headcanons for the story or characters tacked onto it, is that it's just that: A nightmare. There is no "Wally", nor is 'Wally' Mr. Wood's first name, he's only a product of Slappy's mind. My reasoning for this line of thinking comes a combination of the backstory written for Slappy in the 2008 re-release of 'Night of the Living Dummy', the fact that this backstory lines up with the brief bit of exposition in 'Slappy's Nightmare', and the prologue to 'I Am Slappy's Evil Twin'.

In Nightmare, Jimmy reveals that Slappy was created by a sorcerer out of coffin wood. Jimmy makes a passing comment on the sorcerer being 'evil', and Slappy tells him 'not to call him that.' We get a more detailed version of this backstory in the 2008 re-release of NOTLD1, which is included in the back of the book. A sorcerer creates two dummies out of coffin wood, the wood is cursed and imbued with powers. When the first dummy is destroyed, it only makes the second one "twice as evil and a thousand times ruder", and also hints that he may have been kinder before the other dummy's death. We know that this is a direct reference to NOTLD1, where Wood is crushed by a steamroller and the twist is that Slappy is alive as well. In the prologue to 'Evil Twin', where we learn that 'Mr. Wood' is actually the name given to the red headed dummy by his creator, Franz Mahar. (We also learn that 'Slappy' is Slappy's given name, which opens up the question of how exactly Lindy picked up Slappy's name in NOTLD1 without ever having met him first). Franz was a ventriloquist sharing a stage in England with a magician named Kanduu. Kanduu brought Wood to life in order to intimidate Franz, and Franz instead left for America. We know Franz learned some magic from Kanduu, because he uses this magic to bring toys and dolls to life. We also know from this book that Slappy's original purpose was for a less evil reason: he was meant to be a companion to Franz, along with Snappy(though I don't really acknowledge the rest of the book because it's so tonally different from the prologue). All of this to say that 'Slappy's Nightmare', when I take all of this into account, seems more likely be a mishmash of Slappy's own thoughts and experiences than a recollection of events, as dreams often are.

Dreams are the mind's way of compartmentalizing or bringing attention to your experiences, whether in a day or over the course of one's entire life. Definitely seems like the right combination for a really funky nightmare to me. Jimmy makes a comment on Slappy's creator which is swiftly rebutted(hinting at his and Franz's origins in 'Evil Twin'), Slappy is given a task to complete three good deeds(another direct reference to his original purpose, and how he's kind of 'lost' that), but is sabotaged by "Wally" at every turn("Wally" being Wood or maybe even just a representation of the evil magic that corrupted him).

Keep in mind that this is just my interpretation of a story in a saga of books that are wildly inconsistent with one another, especially across different runs of the series itself, and I also see the irony in trying to make something consistent with it lmao. But I hope this was fun to read!

Edited 5/30 for better phrasing

I feel so bad for non-Will Wood listeners who have to deal with my bullshit. Because, how am I supposed to explain why "YOU'RE TRYING TO REPLACE YOURSELF, YOU'RE TRYING TO REPLACE YOURSELF" just came out of my phone when my headphones disconnected?
