The Crucible Play written by Arthur Miller is about Witches in Salem in 1962. A few girls go into the woods and get intoxicated and everyone in the town immediately assumes that they are witches. A lot of drama starts and people lie about who the real witches are. At the beginning Abigail and her friends went into the woods with her friends and got intoxicated and took their clothes off and were dancing around. Her uncle, Reverend Parris caught them and claimed that they were witches and they were selling their soul to the devil. In the book it says, “But if you trafficked with spirits in the forest I must know it now” (Miller 463). They were going to be put to death unless they would let god help them and tell who the other witches were.
