Zuky the BookBum (15 KP) rated The Monkey's Paw: Short Story in Books

Mar 15, 2018

He wanted to show that fate ruled people's lives, and that those who interfered with it did so to their sorrow. He put a spell on it so that three separate men could each have three wishes from it.

Can you believe that I'd never heard of this short before and knew nothing of the plot what-so-ever, before today? Well it's the truth. I think being so ignorant to it made me love it more. I got completely immersed in the story and the lives of our caring and lonely White's.

The panic felt in this book translates to the reader so much so that you find yourself short of breath, praying, hoping, that the front door stays shut.

Excellent horror short, well worth taking 10 minutes out of you day to read.

Get your dictionary ready

To be fair, I may be biased, because this is one of my favorite games.
It's super simple to set up and play, all you need to do is get your letter tiles ready. This game does tend to favor those with an immense vocabulary and those who can spell. It is educational and fun though because playing with others can help you add some new words to your own vocabulary. Be prepared to search through dictionaries if your friend plays a word you don't accept. The way my family plays, we also use a dictionary close to the end of the game to use up our last few tiles, but I think that may be against the rules. Overall, 10/10 would recommend!

Be Our Guest

Beauty and the Beast- such a classic, with excellent songs like.."Belle", "Gaston", "Something There", "Be Our Guest" and "Beauty and the Beast".

The plot: An arrogant young prince (Robby Benson) and his castle's servants fall under the spell of a wicked enchantress, who turns him into the hideous Beast until he learns to love and be loved in return. The spirited, headstrong village girl Belle (Paige O'Hara) enters the Beast's castle after he imprisons her father Maurice (Rex Everhart). With the help of his enchanted servants, including the matronly Mrs. Potts (Angela Lansbury), Belle begins to draw the cold-hearted Beast out of his isolation.

Such a classic movie than their had to remake it. Grr. Like why disney, oh yea i know why $$$. What next a live action of "The Brave Little Toaster".

Dark Voodoo Magic

The Princess and The Frog- holy crap this movie is dark, very dark. Voodoo, magic, death, transformation and more.

The plot: Hardworking and ambitious, Tiana (Anika Noni Rose) dreams of one day opening the finest restaurant in New Orleans. Her dream takes a slight detour when she meets Prince Naveen (Bruno Campos), who has been turned into an amphibian by evil Dr. Facilier. Mistaking her for a princess and hoping to break the spell, Naveen plants a kiss on poor Tiana -- thereby turning her into a frog as well. The pair hop along on an adventure through the bayous to seek the help of a powerful voodoo priestess.

A very dark disney film, the darkness film since "The Black Cauldron". I mean their was "Beauty and The Beast" and "The Hunchback of Notre Dame". But damn this movie was dark.
