In “the monkey’s paw” how does the author use foreshadowing to contribute to the the story’s overall meaning? explain at least two examples of foreshadowing and how they developed the theme of the story.

One of the reasons why "The Monkey's Paw" is so successful at building up suspense is the fact that the use of foreshadowing is present throughout the story. This contributes to developing the story's overall meaning.

The story's meaning, or theme, can be summed up as "be careful what you wish for." The story wants to show us the dangers of wishing, and how the constant need for something else can lead us to negative outcomes. There are two examples of how foreshadowing contributes to the development of this theme. One example occurs when Sergeant-Major Morris warns the family of the dangers of the paw. This suggests that the dangers will affect the family later on in the story. The other example occurs when Mrs. White is disgusted by the paw at first. This shows that the paw is a negative object, and that the family should stay away from it.
