Ghost stories can be funny if they have a comical twist or if they are intentionally written to be humorous. However, the typical perception of ghost stories is often associated with fear and mystery rather than laughter.
It depends. Some people find ghost stories funny because of the way they are told or the humorous elements incorporated. But for others, they can be scary or creepy rather than funny.

Before she died, she found a handsome scholar and asked him to help her return to the human world. The scholar agreed, but the ghost told him that she must stay in his bed for three days and three nights and could not leave the room. The scholar agreed, but on the third night, the female ghost suddenly woke up and found that the scholar had disappeared, leaving only a piece of white paper and a pen.

As he approached the bushes, he suddenly saw a furry bear. The boy was very afraid but he said calmly,"Don't worry, I'll save you." So the boy took out a dagger and stabbed at the bear. The bear noticed the boy's intention and began to run away. The boy continued to chase, but the bear had already run very fast. The boy finally caught the bear, but the bear died because it had been stabbed in the heart by the boy's dagger.

One night they heard a noise that seemed to come from the wall. They turned on the lights and saw a ghostly figure on the wall. They were very scared but they tried to comfort each other and started singing and dancing.

When they finally stopped singing and dancing, the candle shadows disappeared.

Some ghost stories use humor to ease the tension and make the topic more approachable. They might have comical characters or unexpected twists that make you laugh instead of being scared.
One characteristic is the unexpected. For example, a ghost that acts in a silly way instead of being just menacing. Like a ghost that trips over its own spectral sheet. Another is the use of irony. Such as a ghost who is afraid of the living. It makes the story funny but also keeps the spooky element as it's still a ghost.
One scary and funny ghost story is about a ghost who haunts a theater. He's always making the lights flicker during performances, but instead of scaring people away, it makes the shows more exciting. The actors sometimes play along, pretending to be spooked, which amuses the audience.
There was a haunted house where a friendly ghost lived. This ghost loved to play pranks, like moving the furniture around when the family was asleep. But instead of being frightened, the family found it hilarious because the ghost always arranged the furniture in the silliest ways, like putting the sofa on top of the dining table.
Characteristics of funny ghost stories include a lack of extreme gore or violence. They focus more on the comical side of the supernatural. The ghosts in these stories can be clumsy or have odd quirks. For example, a ghost that is always tripping over its own spectral robes. The plot often involves some sort of miscommunication between the living and the dead that leads to humorous situations. Instead of a dark and menacing atmosphere, there's a more light - hearted and even warm feeling in these stories.
One characteristic is the unexpected behavior of the ghost. For example, a ghost that scares people by appearing suddenly but then does something silly like tripping over its own spectral feet. This mix of the frightening sudden appearance and the comical action makes it a funny but scary story.
One characteristic is the use of Irish folklore elements in a humorous way. For example, taking the traditional spooky creatures like the Pooka and making them do silly things. The Pooka, which is usually a shape - shifter that can cause trouble, might be shown as a Pooka that can't shift shapes properly and ends up looking like a half - donkey, half - human, which is quite comical.
