Explanation:

In "The Monkey's Paw" by W.W. Jacobs, we can see the constant use of several literary elements to produce horror suspense and tension, many feelings come to life in this story, but when the monkey's paw is thrown to the fire to be destroyed and Mr whites grabs it, we have a big moment of tension, because we don't know what is he going to wish for and how is this going to affect them.

i think the answer would mist likely be an adjective clause, because unhappy is an adjective.
