This week on Unpleasant Dreams, Cassandra Harold is on vocal rest—doctor’s orders—so we’re revisiting her first Unpleasant Dreams reading from 2023: The Monkey’s Paw by W.W. Jacobs. This chilling tale is one of Jim Harold’s favorite short stories, and its haunting moral remains timeless—be careful what you wish for.

Originally published in Harper’s Monthly in 1902, The Monkey’s Paw is now in the public domain.

Thanks for listening, and don’t forget to share the show with your friends!
