The tell tale heart

This short story is about the narrator that calls himself the man and an old man's vulture eye. The man worked for the old man but he hates seeing that vaulted eye because it gave them cold feelings so every night at midnight he went to the old mans room and see the eye with a flashlight. In the eight night that the man went to the man's bedroom he did not hold his feelings and wanted to kill the old man because he did not support that vulture eye so he went and he killed him because he thought that those feelings would stop. Then the police came and he was felling so guilty because he heard the old man heart beating so he just said to the cops that he has killed the old man.



“Yes. He was dead! Dead as stone!”
This shows that the narrator doesn't react well to other peoples things when the narrator doesn't like them. And he is not passion and that he doesn't think of the consequences before doing something





“ ‘Yes! Yes, I killed him. Pull up the boards and you shall see!’ ”.

This shows that he narrator has a heart and feels guilty of what he did because he has heard the heartbeat of the Old Man. And that he can admit to the police at what he was wrong to do at frist.

The Monkey's Paw

The short story is about a family, Mr and Mrs White and his son Herbert White. One day Major Major Morris, a friend of Mr. White, came to Mr. White's house and he talked about the Monkey's Paw that was a talisman that made 3 wishes. And Major Major Morris gave that to Mr.White so he wanted money since he has problems of paying the house. His first wish was two hundred dollars. One day a man came with bad news to the White's house, he said that his son was dead and his factory had nothing to do about it, but they paid the Whites two hundred dollars and his first wish came true. The Whites had all this money but they were very hurt because their son was dead so Mrs White had a great idea to make another wish wishing this son back. Mr.White wished that his son was back, but then all the house was dark and they heard someone knocking on the door and Mrs White thought it was his son so she ran to open the door, but Mr White thought he was like a monster and he made the third wish to not bring back his son.  


“Badly hurt," he said quietly, "but he is not in any pain."

This shows that the man of the factory Maw and Meggins is telling the White family in a way that his Son Herbert White is dead because he got stuck in a machine. 


"WISH!" she cried in a strong voice."It is foolish and wicked," he faltered."WISH!" repeated his wife.

This shows that Mrs. White was desperate to get back his son  Herbert White because he has a grate idea since they were depressed that his son was dead and the Whites has two more wishes. So he is shouting to his Husband to make the wish quickly because they wanted their son back.
