psychological effects of Abigale THE CRUCIBLE

Individual psychological states are the combination of internal and exterior circumstances. In the town of Salem, a small Puritan Massachuteses town, there were The Salem Witch Trials. A group of young girls cried “witch” to get those who were innocent condemned by the town. No one actually saw the spirit of Satan, but the girls who cried witch started to gain influence and they actually threw the whole town into mass hysteria. Eventually, the girls …

…and anywhere. This phenomenon causes people to act differently and throws everyone out of sync because of the psychological and emotional turbulence it has on the mind. The girls in the Crucible had a significant amount of power over the people of Salem and took advantage of that; drunken with power, they manipulated the mind and had dreadful effects on everyone. Power has some benefits but power without restraint, in most cases has severe consequences.
