The Monkey’s Paw

Be careful what you wish for…

The Monkey’s Paw by W.W. Jacobs is one of the most chilling and enduring tales of supernatural horror ever written. First published in 1902, this short story explores the terrifying consequences of tampering with fate. When an old family receives a magical monkey’s paw—an object that grants its owner three wishes—they soon learn that every gift comes at a dreadful cost.

As suspense builds and wishes are made, Jacobs masterfully draws listeners into a dark atmosphere of dread and inevitability. With gothic overtones, sharp dialogue, and a slow-building sense of terror, The Monkey’s Paw remains a classic of macabre fiction and moral consequence.

This full audiobook brings the haunting tale to life with rich, atmospheric narration that will captivate fans of horror, gothic fiction, and classic short stories. Ideal for listeners who enjoy unsettling narratives with a psychological edge.
