In the drama The Crucible by Arthur Miller, the deaths of all those accused of witchcraft during the Salem Witch Trials are an unnecessary tragedy,
and the lives of many characters are changed forever due to the fear and hysteria of the people of Salem.
Discuss how TWO characters (2 paragraphs; at least 300 words) in the play cause fear and hysteria to run rampant in Salem. Analyze how their
actions affect the events in the play AND the outcome of the play. You must use textual evidence (at least one quote per character) from the play
to support your analysis. Avoid a mere plot summary.
