A living room.
The joke “What room will you never find in a haunted house? A living room” plays on the double meaning of the word “living.” The setup prompts listeners to think about the eerie or supernatural aspects of a haunted house, leading them to anticipate a spooky or ghostly answer. However, the punchline, “A living room,” cleverly subverts this expectation. In most contexts, a “living room” is a common area in a house for relaxation and socializing. But the word “living” also refers to being alive. The humor arises from the juxtaposition of a haunted house, typically associated with the dead, and the concept of “living.”
