An old fakir, from India, puts a spell on the paw for three men to have three wishes each. According to Sergeant Major Morris the first man's last wish was for death and he isn't keen on revealing what his wishes were. This indicates that the paw is bad and will only ever bring bad fortune.
Sergeant-Major Morris acquired the monkey's paw while serving in India, where he encountered it during his time in the military. He obtained the paw from a mysterious old fakir who had enchanted it to grant three wishes to its owner. Morris, aware of the paw's dark and dangerous powers, kept it as a curiosity but later sought to rid himself of it, warning others of its potential consequences.
