In "The Monkey's Paw" by W.W. Jacobs, Mr. White is primarily afraid of the consequences of interfering with fate. After he makes wishes on the paw, he becomes increasingly anxious about the potential repercussions of his desires, particularly when his first wish leads to the tragic death of his son, Herbert. This fear of unintended consequences highlights the themes of hubris and the danger of tampering with the natural order. Ultimately, Mr. White's dread culminates in his desperate attempt to reverse the horrors unleashed by the paw.
