About this listen

For the run-up to Halloween (the greatest holiday of the year), we review one of Patrick's absolute favorite short stories, and a piece that helped inspire Stephen King's Pet Semetary--"The Monkey's Paw" by W.W. Jacobs. Just what makes this story so unsettling? We think it's because of what Jacobs leaves to the reader's imagination.
