Dad Joke explanation - 01/20/2026
The Joke:
- Why is it so cheap to throw a party at a haunted house? Because the ghosts bring all the boos.
Explaining:
It’s a pun..
  • At a party, people usually bring booze (alcohol), which can be expensive.
  • In a haunted house, you have ghosts, and ghosts say “boo!”
The joke plays on the fact that “boos” (ghost sounds) and “booze” (alcohol) sound almost the same.
So it’s “cheap” to throw the party because:
the ghosts bring the “boos”, instead of guests bringing booze.
That wordplay is what makes it funny 😄
