What is the first thing that comes to your mind when you think of cemeteries? Personally I think they are peaceful to walk into because it is so quiet. Some understandably get scared, but not me. I kinda like it. No one bothers me and I can clear my mind when I take a walk in a graveyard. There is also nothing scary about death. It is part of life. Do you think you will live forever? You know that it is not possible, and would you really want to do that?

As much as I value and love life, there is a time when you need to go, at the right time of course! However, cemeteries are beautiful and are the crux of some very dark jokes. You know what, that is okay. Dark humor is something that keeps so many people happy when they are going through difficult trials and tribulations in life. As long as they don’t do it at the expense at anyone, it is fine. And now it is time to indulge in some dark humor. Here are 50 cemetery puns that are dead funny so enjoy them.
