Ho Ho Ho is the signature laugh of Santa Claus, the gift-bringing figure of Christmas folklore who has been pictured chuckling in stories, songs, films and advertisements for generations. The phrase itself has become shorthand for the holiday season, instantly recognisable even without any visual context. Online, short versions of the laugh are shared as soundboard clips and voice-changer effects for festive videos, streams and memes, where a single burst can set a Christmas scene in under two seconds. Its simplicity is why it keeps returning every December.
