Shapechanger. The chair mimic can use its action to polymorph into a fake chair form or back into its true, amorphous form. Its statistics are the same in each form. Any equipment it is wearing or carrying isn't transformed. It reverts to its true form if it dies.

False Appearance (Object Form Only). While the chair mimic remains motionless, it is indistinguishable from an ordinary wooden chair.
Grappler. The chair mimic has advantage on attack rolls against any creature grappled by it.

Description
What looks to be an ordinary chair is actually a terrifying beast. These creatures come in various shapes and sizes to mimic different kinds of chairs, but the most common ones resemble simple wooden chairs. The seat can open up to reveal a gaping maw with razor-sharp teeth and a long shiny tongue, and it can twist and contort its wood-like body to walk around and jump at its prey. Tavern owners who find they have chair mimics in their establishment are recommended to take all the chairs out back and burn them all in a pile. Better safe than sorry.
