LightmareFuel is when [[AccidentalNightmareFuel Nightmare]] [[HighOctaneNightmareFuel Fuel]] is PlayedForLaughs. It is the perfect combination of the truly scary with the truly funny. This often happens in comedy works, but can just as often occur in horror stories.

* ''KurosagiCorpseDeliveryService''. Most of the series features a lot of this trope. In the first book, one of their stories features a corpse [[spoiler: made from parts of seven different girls]] who gets vengeance on her killer by telling him a joke. It drives him insane.
