I remember reading this in high school. I don’t know who was worse... one of the smartest students in the class saying it was the monkey at the door or the teacher asking “what monkey”.

I think that's taking the concept I teach of "bring yourself to the story" too far

@Linda7995 Год назад

U, your teacher, and the ones laughing at this are racist pieces of crap. I bet none of you would say this if a black person was around. Closet racists are a joke

Always a spooky story. Be careful what you wish for-always makes sense to me. Nicely done.

@RichardDominguezTheMagicIsReal Год назад

Wonderfully done, the first time I saw this I was in my early teens at a community playhouse I remember having nightmares for weeks at what was behind the door. Congratulations to everyone in this adaptation, job well done

@jasonbender2459 2 месяца назад

Me too. Saw this in film format in jr high like 45 years ago. Nightmares for weeks imagining what was at the door. (the film had some moaning and lightning to build the tension) lol. those were the days. After too many modern horror movies, a few years in Afghanistan, a few car accidents, too much time wasted on gore websites ala watchpeopledie etc, the only thing that could keep me up at night now is my overactive bladder...

@Offshoreorganbuilder 10 лет назад

Usually, I do not like classic stories such as this one to be re-interpreted, but this is very good. Congratulations to all concerned and thanks for the upload.

Hi WSKG Public Media! We're working on a video essay about the origin of the "monkey paw" trope and how it works (or rather doesn't quite work) in the most recent Wonder Woman movie. We were wondering if we could use your video of this performance in ours when we talk about the origin of the phrase "monkey paw"? Happy to link out to this video in our description - let us know!

@lor3999 10 месяцев назад

👍🏼 Read this bout 45 years ago never thought of this perfect fix. Like it. The teacher picked up on that word “coincidence” & made us think about a different way the same story played out. Very memorable tale.

@gkent4418 3 года назад

"Monkey's paw" was made into a really weird ep of 'Alfred Hitchcock Hour'and starring the beautiful Colin Wilcox. It was a story that supernatural and rational elements combined in that old 60s TV ep!

This is a nicer version of one I originally saw. The version I remember, they brought the guy back to life and had to wish him back dead after he started screaming in pain because they had already embalmed him

@josephbariteau1225 3 года назад

Some Ways I Think The Movie Connects With The Story Is When The Father Makes A Mistake In Chess In The Beginning, Herbert Dies So An Employee Gives His Parents Money Via Wish, And How When Herbert's Parents Wish Herbert Alive And There Is Continuous Knocking On The Door. A Way The Movie Is Different From The Story Is That In The Movie Herbert's Parents Wish For Money In Dollars And In The Story They Wish For Money In Pounds.

i think this might the worst adaptation of the story I've ever seen, or at least the worst acted.

@SR-uf8pt 8 лет назад

The story is incomparably creepy, but very short. They padded it out to make the adaptation. IMO, that was a mistake.

@anksunamunbce3668 7 лет назад

GalenNight there were A few movies made with the name "" The Monkey's Paw "" but the first was the good one. the couple wished there son back alive he was killed by the war. the movie was good they belt it up as he knocked at the door they wished him away. it was more then that.but it was the only one that was scary. the rest movies on the Paw, were not very g00d
