in the monkey paw story how does the author create a feeling or suspense or tension in the story?

Answer:

It is a stormy night.  There is a chess game going on and this in itself can be suspenseful or apprehensive.  Read the portion that describes the place and home that they live in.  The author sets the scene and the atmosphere around the characters.  

Explanation:

This story was written in the early twentieth century and it reads like a Victorian story.  There is old fashioned language used and at that time the amount of money they are talking about - was a lot of money.  Just reading the portions to set the scene give you a ghost story like presence.  Remember too, that the use of a mystical object (supernatural sense) makes you get goosebumps.

Answer:

The answer is C: by creating a dark, stormy setting and introducing a mysterious, cursed object.

Explanation:

CHAPTER II—THE SHE-WOLF, an excerpt
From White Fang
By Jack London

Breakfast eaten and the slim camp-outfit lashed to the sled, the men turned their backs on the cheery fire and launched out into the darkness. At once began to rise the cries that were fiercely sad—cries that called through the darkness and cold to one another and answered back. Conversation ceased. Daylight came at nine o'clock. At midday the sky to the south warmed to rose-colour, and marked where the bulge of the earth intervened between the meridian sun and the northern world. But the rose-colour swiftly faded. The grey light of day that remained lasted until three o'clock, when it, too, faded, and the pall of the Arctic night descended upon the lone and silent land.

As darkness came on, the hunting-cries to right and left and rear drew closer—so close that more than once they sent surges of fear through the toiling dogs, throwing them into short-lived panics.

At the conclusion of one such panic, when he and Henry had got the dogs back in the traces, Bill said:

"I wisht they'd strike game somewheres, an' go away an' leave us alone."

"They do get on the nerves horrible," Henry sympathized.

They spoke no more until camp was made.

One day a monkey went to the nest of his Goose and found there an egg all yellow and glittering. When he took it up it was as heavy as lead and he was going to throw it away, because he thought a trick had been played upon him. But, on second thought, he took it home and soon found to his delight that it was an egg of pure gold. Every morning the same thing occurred, and he soon became rich by selling
his eggs. As he grew rich he grew greedy; and thinking to get at once all the gold the Goose could give, he killed it and opened it only to find nothing.
