-_- The problem is that LocalPlayer doesn't work on server, but with the client. Meltdown81 309 — 6y

In this case it looks base is a function, but you're trying to index it like a table (eg. base[5] or base.somefield). The 'upvalue' part is just telling you what kind of variable base is, in this case an upvalue (aka external local variable)

Also try highlighting individual sections and run the script to pin point where the exact error is coming from The_Pr0fessor 595 — 6y

I have a tricky history with remoteEvents and its siblings so this might not work.

--Script
local monsty = game.ReplicatedStorage.Monsty    --Place it in ReplicatedStorage so localscripts can access it

local remote = game.ReplicatedStorage.RemoteEvent.OnServerEvent:connect(function(ply)
    local cha = ply.Character
    local jebus = monsty:Clone()
    cha:ClearAllChildren()

    for i,v in pairs(jebus:GetChildren()) do
        v.Parent = cha
    end

    jebus:Destroy()
    ply.PlayerGui:FindFirstChild("ScreenGui").Frame.Visible = true
end)

I'm unsure if this will kill the player.
