Monkey's Paw Retellings + The Beatles

George: The original short story from 1902. In it, W.W. Jacobs illustrates how all desire, no matter how justified, is corrosive to the human spirit. To want something is to lose it. Peace only comes when you accept the fundamental incompleteness of life and divest yourself of all desire.

John and Paul: Their favorite would be the 1965 Alfred Hitchcock Hour retelling. Hitchcock tells us it's possible to get every single thing you want in life, but not in a way you can stomach.

Ringo: The 1991 Simpsons retelling. Because he, too, would wish for a turkey sandwich, and you know fucking why.
