The Monkey's paw was found one day by a man and a group of friends, and he is allowed three wishes. An old retired army man knew it was cursed and pointless, and insisted the man throw it in the fire to burn it so no one would feel its wrath again, but he, being greedy, ignores the old army man.
His first wish is for 200 pounds. A day later, the man's son is killed by some machinery at his work, and he receives 200 pounds compensation. (Pounds is the form of money in the UK, where this story took place).
The second wish is to make his son alive again. That night, the son climbs out of his grave and knocks on the door wanting to be let in to his parents' house.
The third wish is completely out of fear. The man is so afraid of what his undead son will look like that he wishes his son back to the grave he arose from. A sudden stop in the knocking prompts them to open the door, and there is no one there.
Summary: Although the man had wished for fortune, it was at the cost of another life. He threw the paw of the dead monkey (the Monkey's Paw) into the fire, to be burned and never be used again.
