After watching both of the Goosebumps films, I keep wondering what it might be like to see the characters in the OUAT universe, especially Slappy. Maybe R.L. Stine could be another Author, his Smith Corona typewriter taking up the same role as the  Author's quill. 

I know that within OUAT there's usually only one Author at a time, but it'd be an interesting concept to play with--especially since instead of recording the stories that belong to existing realms, he's creating his own stories and characters without breaking any of the rules laid out in the show, which can then leap off the pages of his manuscripts.  

I feel like he acts very similarly to an OUAT Author in the first film. When Slappy breaks himself and the other Goosebumps monsters out of the manuscripts and starts raising hell throughout Madison, Stine doesn't pull an Isaac and write an entirely new story to trap them again. 

Well technically, he does - but he writes out the events that are actually happening in order to do it. The only time he and Zach start writing out their own plot points is when it comes time to finish the book so they can trap the monsters.

Speaking of Isaac, he's proof that the Goosebumps manuscripts wouldn't be a far-fetched thing to have in the OUAT universe. Isaac creates one of his own books called Heroes and Villains. The only difference is, he's completely rewriting the stories and roles of people who already exist which is breaking the rules.

Moving on from that, though, what if the Dark Curse were to somehow force some of the characters out of their manuscripts and into Storybrooke?

We know the Curse can reach multiple realms. Dr. Whale is a prime example of someone who's not from the Enchanted Forest. Who's to say it can't affect the real world, too? (Aside from creating an entirely new town in Maine, I mean.) 

One idea I have in particular would be for the Curse to make Slappy and the other living dummies human. I know that idea has been played with in a few fanfictions about him online, but usually it's a random power that Slappy has to make himself human at will or something. 

And since the first curse gives everyone false memories, maybe Slappy and the others believe they've always been human. The curse could even give them new names.

Another thing that came to mind would be to have Hannah end up there as well since she's already out of her manuscript, which would then prompt Stine and the others to go search for her. 

Oh! And maybe another book like Henry's could pop up, this one filled with Goosebumps stories rather than with fairy tales.

Would anyone reading this be interested in a fanfiction about it? Let me know in the comments!
