The story of the Monkeys Paw

The story of the Monkey’s paw was first written in 1902. The writer was W. W. Jacobs. What most don’t know is many writers write about their own experiences or use parts of them. One example is a manuscript I’m reading right now for an unknown relative who out of the blue sent it to me. I know of them but I never met them. Included with the manuscript are tennis balls which I think will have something in them by just reading the script. What I noticed was how they definitely used elements of their own life and other relatives they know. The writer of the Monkeys Paw actually had the real paw but great things and total happiness wouldn’t sell. People loved horror back in the day. Love stories were considered sinful and come on, are they not boring? I don’t even watch that stuff BUT, I do LOVE however watching C. B Strike! I love that one legged man! Ooo La La! You can watch it on Amazon with a sub to Max or watch it on Max. Right now season 4 is out. I love all the actors in it. Then I love Landman, Yellowstone, a few others but I mainly watch British TV. A show has to be really good or relaxing and good for me to watch it. I have subscriptions to Acorn TV, BritBox and PBS. The shows are amazing! I loved Selfridges too which is a TV show but not the documentary. The writer was the owner of the Monkeys paw of which he really found in the jungle inside a old pottery like piece. Inside were also writings on bits of leaves. This pottery was full blown supernatural in the way it just moved by itself and crashed! This only happened to get Williams attention. Once it had it and he figured it all out by accident he realized what he had. Now you too can have it. Here is how it really worked. Each person gets three wishes. This paw is where the legend of 3 wishes came from.

In a quaint, old village, there lived a man named Mr. White, who was always intrigued by tales of magic and wonder. One stormy night, his friend Sergeant-Major Morris visited, bringing with him an ancient artifact known as the Monkey's Paw. The paw, with its twisted, dried fingers, was said to grant three wishes to its owner, but with an ominous warning: the wishes could twist in unexpected ways.

Morris, eager to be rid of the paw's burden, threw it into the fire, but Mr. White quickly snatched it back, his curiosity piqued. Despite the warnings, Mr. White made his first wish - for £200 to clear his debts.

The next day, a peculiar thing happened. Mr. White received a letter from a distant relative, notifying him of an inheritance he was completely unaware of - exactly £200! Overjoyed, Mr. White and his family felt a sense of relief and happiness, but he was cautious due to the tales of the paw's curse.

For his second wish, Mr. White decided to wish for something he truly valued - health for his family. Within weeks, all members of his family, who had been dealing with various ailments, suddenly found themselves in perfect health. Their doctor, baffled by this sudden turnaround, could only speculate on the "miraculous recovery."

Feeling both grateful and somewhat skeptical, Mr. White pondered long and hard about his final wish. He decided not to wish for personal gain but for something that would benefit everyone in his community. His final wish was for the village to prosper.

And so, it came to pass. The village, which had been struggling economically, saw a surge in tourism due to an ancient, hidden treasure discovered in the nearby woods. The newfound wealth brought jobs, revitalized the local economy, and restored the once-dwindling community spirit.

Years later, Mr. White, now an old man, would often sit by the fireplace, recounting the tale of the Monkey's Paw not as a cautionary tale but as one of unexpected good fortune. The paw, now kept in a glass case, was a reminder of how sometimes, even with magic, the intentions of kindness can lead to truly beneficial outcomes. The village continued to thrive, with Mr. White's story becoming one of hope and the power of positive wishes. This wasn’t Mr. White but instead WW Jacobs. The story he wrote had people coming back from the dead, his son getting killed, etc. The one you read above is a true story. This can be used many times but it’s suggested that a good person have it. This is a real and the real Monkeys Paw. This isn’t fake bone or hair, it’s real! I will tell the new owner how to use it which is really easy.
