Explanation:
The setting is suspenseful because the reader is used to expecting something bad to happen on a spooky, rainy night. Since we are told that the Whites do not have many neighbors, this just contributes to the effect.
Something does happen when Sergeant-Major Morris arrives with the monkey’s paw. We are told that it is dangerous, even deadly, but the Whites are only curious. Drawn in by the paw’s promise of magic, they test it out by wishing for money. They do not heed Morris’s warning, leading the reader to believe that something bad is going to happen because, after all, it is a dark and stormy night!
