Heavy breathing‚ heart racing‚ the feeling of something crawling on your skin are some situations you might be put in when reading a novel such as The Monkey’s Paw.

believe this suspense story deserves the second place title because this story‚ much like The Tell-Tale Heart‚ paired fear and horror with the suspense. In The Monkey’s Paw‚ the author uses the fear of being buried alive‚ which I think is another interesting way to create dread in your reader‚ this helps the suspense flow a little smoother‚ because now your reader is worried and just has to know what happens to the character. I love that this suspense story used classic suspense‚ the suspense was how
