The Monkey's Paw and Other Tales of Mystery and the Macabre, Compiled by Gary Hoppenstand, brings together a unique collection of W.W. Jacobs's horror stories never before collected. There are eighteen stories altogether in this collection of the macabre and supernatural. Jacobs's own boyhood memories of South Devon Wharf lend an authenticity to the many stories with nautical backgrounds or that feature seamen as protagonists.

What else can one say?This is one of the great classics of horror---has all the macabre stories by a man known more for his humorous stories,but Jacobs was also a top-notch horror writer.This should be in every horror reader's collection.

great read awesome book it is a real definite page turner.not to heavy but not to light either. quite enjoyable

You can tell it was written long ago.......not so scary

I tried to read it, but the first 3 stories are terrifying, and i could not continue after them... very good book if you like the macabre.

saw the movie tales from the crypt with joan collins i think it was 1972. One of the short stories talks about a monkey's paw. I looked it up and there was a book about it. Awesome short stories.
