Title: The Monkey’s Paw

Author: W. W. Jacobs

Narrator: Jonathan Dunne

Original Publication: 1902

Public Domain: Yes

Series Placement: Number 6 in the Timeless Terrors series

Description:

The Monkey’s Paw by W. W. Jacobs is a classic tale of supernatural horror and the peril of tampering with fate. First published in 1902 in the collection The Lady of the Barge, it tells the chilling story of the White family, who come into possession of a mysterious monkey’s paw said to grant three wishes.

What begins as a curious indulgence soon spirals into tragedy, as each wish carries unforeseen and terrible consequences. Jacobs weaves a tightly paced narrative filled with suspense, dread, and an unforgettable warning about the costs of interfering with destiny.

This recording, narrated by Amazon bestselling horror author Jonathan Dunne, brings to life the eerie atmosphere and relentless tension of one of the most enduring cautionary tales in English literature. While the text is in the public domain, this performance is an original work and copyright © 2025 Jonathan Dunne.

Listeners should prepare for a haunting story that lingers long after the final word.
