A correct observation as this quote proves:

   Riddikulus (ri-di-KYOO-lus)
   "ridiculum" L. joke, from "ridere" L. to laugh
   Defense against a Boggart, forces the creature to
   take on a silly appearance.
   Lupin taught the third year Defense Against The
   Dark Arts class to use this spell (PA, GF31) The
   laughter it produces in onlookers is what does the
   Boggart in.
