Notes
- Despite the claim made in the spell's description, a creature affected by Hideous Laughter is not technically considered Prone for the purposes of interactions with other mechanics. For example,
Hook Horrors may 
Multiattack: Prone a Prone target, but not a target affected by Hideous Laughter. - Hideous Laughter is also not considered an incapacitating condition. This means it is one of the few incapacitating effects that bypasses
Legendary Resistance: Incapacitation. - The incantation for Tasha's Hideous Laughter is Risum Peniatis ("Laugh out loud").
