331 Words2 Pages
Herbert killed himself. It all started on a dark and stormy night while they were playing chess. A man from a faraway land knocked on the door. He told a tale of a magical paw. The paw would let you make three wishes. In the story, “Monkey’s Paw,” the son Herbert dies. Unbelieving Herbert said many things that lead to his death. I believe Herbert is to blame. Even though, Herbert didn’t believe in the paw he is still responsible for his own death. Herbert was making a joke out of the scary paw. Herbert said, “Were going to be rich and famous and happy.” He was playing as if the paw wasn’t real. Another way curious Herbert made a joke of the unusual paw is that he said, “I expect you’ll find the cash tied up in a bag in the middle of your bed.”
