70 Witch Jokes for Kids, Classrooms, and Halloween Parties

Witches have the best props in all of Halloween: a broom that refuses to behave, a cauldron that bubbles at the worst moment, and a black cat with a strong opinion about everything. That makes them perfect for jokes that kids and grown-ups can both laugh at.

This list is all about full jokes with a setup and a punchline, plus quick one-liners for cards and Stories. If you want short wordplay for captions instead, our witch puns are built for that.

Here are 70 family-friendly witch jokes, all original, sorted by classics, kids, brooms and cauldrons, cats and spells, one-liners, and party jokes, so you can grab the right one for any moment of the spooky season.
