The Crucible is a movie based on the play by Arthur Miller. It explores the consequences of lies and witchcraft during the late 1600s. During that period of time, Witchcraft was a crime punishable by death. This movie presents us with a character named Abigail.

But it is a whore's vengeance, and you must see it now.” (110) Analysis of Quote: John Proctor desperately tried to expose Abigail Williams as a fraud without leaking the news of their affair. When Abigail and the girls deny Mary Warren’s testimony in order to have Elizabeth hang, John Proctor leapt up at Abigail and told the court, “She thinks to dance with me on my wife’s grave!” (110).

After being accused of associating with the Devil and performing witchery, the young girls plot to confess that they had indeed been affiliated with the Devil, but now wish to do God’s work. In claiming to do so, they accuse several people in the town who they have grudges against in an attempt to mask their reprisal as justice.

Lady Macbeth acts nervous and fake during the trial to represent her anxiety during the play, and at the end of the trial she dies from her fear like she did in the play (5.5.7). The final witness in the trial is Murderer 1, he is a surprise witness, a breakthrough, and Macduff calls him up to seal the case and take the win. In the trial he dresses and walks like a criminal and confesses to the court that Macbeth planned the murder of Banquo.

During the witch trials, the accused were interrogated and forced to plead guilty of witchcraft or die. Most pleaded guilty just to save their life, but they were also forced to give up the names of other “witches”. Blaming others could also direct the blame from the accused to someone else, this way the accused could escape the pain and shame of being called a witch. In Cotton Mather Biography, it is stated that, “As the trials progressed, and growing numbers of person confesses to being witches.” This portrays the on going snowball effect of blaming other people of witchcraft.
