"The Monkey's Paw" is a supernatural short story by writer "W.W.Jacobs" first published in England in 1902.




In the story, three wishes are granted, but the wishes come with an enormous price for interfering with fate.


In "The Monkey's Paw" what is the third desire and what are consequences? He wished for his son to be dead again and the consequences were that he saw him and she was in anguish ...... He wished for a wife as beautiful as nature. His wife, who was a swan, turned man


While at first the white do not believe in the monkey's paw, they decide to make a wish anyway. Mr.White wants 200 pounds to pay off his house.


The second wish was Mrs..White's wish that her son, Herbert, would come back to life. In this story, sergeant-major morris come to the whites' house and shows the monkey's paw. He is about 200pounds.


"As I wished, it twisted in my hand like a snake." The second wish, to have the whites mangled, dead son alive again made in sadness and desertion .......... He heard the creaking of the bolt as it came slowly back, and at the same moment he found the monkey's paw, and frantically breathed his third and last wish
