[edit] Indian
Indian is NOT what the burial grounds are; unless the book explicatly says/means that Indians made those burial grounds, then I'd accept that term, but I have never heard of people from India making burial grounds on the EAST coast of North America. Also, Indian should not follow Micmac; you don't say Chinese Orientals, do you? 202.156.14.254 08 May 2006

- Uh....the indians in the story are red indians or the meso-americans, not the indians of asia. If you need to be a purist in wordplay, the indians of asia should be known as bharatis and not "indians" per se.
- Obviously, that's my whole rationale! Don't you DARE accuse me of playing around! How dare you!!. And bharatis? Please explain. And your forgot to sign.68.148.165.213 09:10, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

- Regarding, 'Also, Indian should not follow Micmac; you don't say Chinese Orientals, do you?' I'm going to put parenthesis. I don't think I have to explain why........

[edit] Zelda flashbacks?
I deleted from the plot summary line about Zelda:
- — an issue which is brought up several times in flashbacks.)
The novel is told mostly from Louis's POV: there aren't any "flashback"s in the narrative sense, although Rachel tells the story of Zelda's death to Louis and then imagines that she sees Zelda when she's actually seeing the Gage-zombie. Thus reference to flashbacks in the novel plot-summary is inaccurate. The movie does use flashbacks to depict Zelda. Ellsworth 23:36, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Intro
The intro to this article I think should not contain any reference to the monkey's paw - this should go into a different section. And it certainly should not assume knowledge about the story (some people may not know what "the second wish" was). Satchfan 06:09, 10 January 2007 (UTC)
