At the beginning the Whites think it is foolishness to have it or believe it can give them wishes but after Herbert's death, they think of it as something bad to have. Now they remember what Morris said "who interfered with it did so to their sorrow".
The author said the monkeys paw came from India. So I think the tale was from India.
Major Morris says that a fakir from India had given him the paw. He says that the reason for the paw containing magic powers was that before he got the paw, the paw had been used by three other people whose wishes came rue, in which the third person wished such a thing that he died. After that Morris received the paw. He considered the monkey's paw to be a curse because it did behold magical powers to fulfil people's wishes, but when someone wished for something, it fulfilled the wish in a very dreadful manner.

Morris obtained the monkey's paw from a mysterious sergeant-major who had served in India. The sergeant-major described it as a magical object capable of granting three wishes but warned of its dangerous consequences. Intrigued by its potential, Morris brought the paw back to England, where he later demonstrated its powers to the White family.
Sergeant-Major Morris acquired the monkey's paw while serving in India, where he encountered it during his time in the military.
