Therefore, Napstablook must have lived in the dummy that the main character talks to because the Mad Dummy said that the main character scared his cousin's ghost out of a dummy. But no one said that all ghosts lived inside dummies. Otherwise how would Mettaton have gotten his body? Dummies are just convenient bodies for them. The one inside the first dummy could have very well been a different ghost. Okay but remember how we first encountered blooky? First Toriel tells us to talk to an empty dummy, and then, a few rooms later, we encounter a ghost, just lying on the floor. My theory is maybe Napstablook used to inhabit the first dummy when you 'attacked' it, but considering how shy they are, we didn't notice the dummy was inhabited. Napstablook got nervous and left the dummy, for us to encounter them later, pretending to sleep on the floor.
