Ghostly Giggles

It's joke time! These jokes come from the book "Ghostly Giggles" by Ann McGovern. This is a Scholastic Book from 1972.

Why do demons and ghouls get along so well?
   Because demons are a ghoul's best friend.

Do you know how many people are buried in the town cemetery?
   All of them.

Why do they put a fence around the graveyard?
   Because so many people are dying to get in.

What happens when a cat eats a lemon?
   He becomes a sour puss.

What has two thousand eyes and two thousand legs?
   One thousand people.

What do ghouls take when they start to cough?
   Coffin drops.

What kind of jewels does a ghoul wear?
   Tombstones.

What is a ghost's favorite dinner?
   Spook-ghetti, ghost beef, and devil's food cake.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha THUD!
What was THAT?
   That was the sound of a witch laughing her head off.

What did one ghost say to the other?
   Do you believe in people?

Why is a falling ghost like a heavy rain?
   Because they both come down in sheets.

From our house at Bedford Mews
I must report this hideous news:
   We've discovered a head
   In the box for the bread,
But nobody seems to know whose!

I giggled outloud at the first one and the quality went down from there. I still use the "dying to get in there" line everytime a cemetery is mentioned.
