Who is most responsible for the tragedy of Macbeth? In shakespeare's play write Macbeth, there are many murders that have occurred. There are many things that have contributed to these murders but I believe that the 3 witches in the story caused the murders to happen. Though they did not physically commit the act of murder, they have sparked the idea of becoming king in the mind of Macbeth.

A reason why the 3 witches were most responsible was because they told macbeth he would be king. “All hail macbeth Thane of glamis! All hail macbeth Thane of cawdor! All hail macbeth that shalt be king hereafter!” (Shakespeare, 1.3. 51-53) Not only did the witches tell him he would become king, but they didn't tell him how or when he would become king.
