The Monkey Paw is a short story by author W. W. Jacobs. Released in 1902, the story centres around a cursed monkey paw that can grant three wishes to the holder. We are joined by Jackson Baly and Adam Carnevale from Sanspants Radio to discuss. We've read a synopsis of the book so you don't have to!

We also discuss Halloween in Australia and the Florida Skunk Ape,joy!
