One more is 'Lamb to the Slaughter' by Roald Dahl. The situation where the wife kills her husband with a frozen leg of lamb and then feeds it to the police officers investigating the murder is darkly humorous. The officers' obliviousness as they eat the murder weapon adds to the humor.
Mark Twain's 'The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County' is also very humorous. It tells the story of a man who bets on a frog's jumping ability. The way Twain describes the characters and their antics, especially the conniving way the stranger tricks the local into the bet, is really funny.
Well, 'A Retrieved Reformation' by the same O. Henry is also quite good. It's about a safecracker who tries to go straight but gets caught up in a situation where his old skills might be needed. The irony and humor in the story are really engaging.
Sure. 'The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County' by Mark Twain is a classic from such collections. It's about a man tricked into believing a frog has amazing jumping abilities.
The short story 'The Lady, or the Tiger?' is somewhat humorous in a dark way. A young man is put in an arena where he has to choose between two doors, one with a lady and one with a tiger. The absurdity of the situation and the not - so - obvious ending make it an interesting and humorously thought - provoking story.

Well, another might be a story of a clumsy magician. During his show, instead of making a rabbit appear from the hat, he accidentally pulled out his own pet parrot that started squawking 'Wrong trick, dummy!' which made the whole audience burst into laughter. He was so embarrassed but it was really hilarious.
Another excellent short story from Poe is 'The Cask of Amontillado'. It's a tale of revenge. Montresor lures Fortunato into the catacombs under the pretense of tasting a rare wine. The dark and claustrophobic setting heightens the sense of doom. Poe's use of irony and foreshadowing makes this story a classic.
One of the well - known short stories from Twain is 'The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County'. It's a humorous tale about a bet on a frog - jumping contest.
There's also 'The Hand'. It's a story that shows Colette's ability to create an atmosphere. Through her words, you can almost feel the tension and the unspoken emotions that the characters are experiencing.
