About this audiobook
The Monkey’s Paw is a classic horror tale that gives new meaning to the phrase “Be careful what you wish for.”
When the White family comes into the possession of a monkey’s paw that magically grant wishes, They do what many people would do—They wish. But every thing has a consequence, and the White family finds they are completely unprepared for what comes next.
The Monkey’s Paw has become a classic horror story and has been adapted numerous times, including into episodes of such popular television series as The X-Files, The Twilight Zone, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, The Simpsons: Treehouse of Horror, Are You Afraid of the Dark?, and Tales from the Crypt.
