witch A witch burnt her butt on a candle.
She was angry. It was such a scandal.
She jumped on her broom
and zoomed to her doom.
Went too fast, and flew off the handle! witch

This limerick isn't a stretch
It's about an unfortunate wretch
A werewolf pursued him
How did he elude him?
He threw it a stick and yelled, "fetch!"


Sometimes lost is where you need to be. Just because you don't know your direction doesn't mean you don't have one.

Frankenstein wasn’t very compliant
He was mad and annoyed and defiant
But he happened to pass
Anger management class
And turned into The Jolly Green Giant!

On a blind date, two cyclops said "Hi."
"You're the one eye adore" they did sigh.
They've been married for years,
And the secret appears,
They apparently see eye to eye. blackkitty

The invisible man came to dine
He sat right to my left, which was fine
But his rumblings abdominal were simply phenomenal
And everyone thought they were mine.

7. scared
You're a woman from east Transylvania
Dating Dracula, with all his weird mania
He asks you each night
To go for a bite
An experience certain to drain ya.

4. A ghost and a witch with a broom
and a ghoul and a bat in a room
stayed up very late
so that they could debate
about who should be frightened by whom!

Life is what happens while you're making other plans.

A dragon with fiery plume
Crashed a wedding and smashed up the room
Ate every hors d’oeuvre
Crushed the cake - what a nerve!
Then toasted the bride and the groom!

That's hilarious! They're all very entertaining. Thanks, Cue. wave


The moon is actually more useful than the sun since the moon gives us light at night when it's dark. The sun only gives us light during the day when it's already bright out.

Nice solve, michele thumbsup

You're all welcome. It looked like a fun puzzle idea and I'm glad it was enjoyable.

The limericks themselves are the work of Richard Lederer on his verbivore page. There are some more ghoulish limericks here as well.
