    The Hero’s Journey Joseph Campbell has come up with this idea that there is one three-stage formula- in which he calls the “Hero’s Journey”. This formula is the structure of the story, and is the basic form or shape of something. Most houses have four walls and a roof, they all look slightly different on the outside, but they mostly share this basic structure. Campbell says that although most stories are different on the outside, stories are almost always structured around these three stages. The first stage is when the hero leaves their everyday world and enters into another world, the second stage talks about when the hero is challenged by opposing forces, a series of test they must pass, and whether or not a victory is won.
