Why the adj. word "frozen" after the verb in the sentence "Mr. Dursley sat frozen in his armchair." in Harry Poter.?

Why the adjective word "frozen" after the verb in the sentence "Mr. Dursley sat frozen in his armchair." in Harry Poter <Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone>.

I change the sentence. "Mr. Dursley sat happy in his armchair." The sentence is wrong. "happy" and "frozen" are adjective words. Why I can't replace "frozen" with "happy".

In my opinion, the frozen is adjective. It can't after the verb sat.
