Answer 1

i have that question on my homework tonight too.... i think the internal is when mr.white can decide whether to wish herbert alive again or to just forget about it, im not sure about the external though

Answer 2

The external conflict in "The Monkey's Paw" is between the White family and the consequences of using the cursed monkey's paw. The internal conflict lies within Mr. White as he grapples with his desire to use the paw to improve his family's financial situation, but also fears the potential consequences of meddling with fate.
