👔 Classic Dad Joke

What's a mummy's favorite type of dance music?

The monster mash — it's always a wrap!

Why This Joke Works

This joke doubles down: it references "The Monster Mash" (the iconic Halloween song) and then adds "it's always a wrap" — which sounds like "it's a wrap" (the phrase used when something ends) but also means the mummy's bandages are wrapping things up. Two punchlines in one, delivered with a callback structure that rewards patient listeners.

🎤 How to Tell This Joke

Deliver "The Monster Mash" as the obvious first answer, then pause — let the audience think that's it — before dropping "it's always a wrap!" as the real kicker.

Perfect for:

  • When playing the Monster Mash at a Halloween dance party
  • At a Halloween party when wrapping up the evening's festivities
  • During a Halloween mummy-themed craft session while wrapping toilet paper
