Q
Are the Witches evil
A
they are usually accompanied by ‘Thunder and lightning’ which makes the atmosphere dark and frightening, they make prophecies but never explain how they will happen this means they take advantage of Macbeth’s weakness and use it to control his actions - they never tell him to kill the king but they say that he will be king forcing him to kill the King, they also confuse Macbeth with paradoxes and not making it clear what the future holds so they keep control of Macbeth, they trick him by making predictions that give him a false sense of security such as ‘none of woman born’ which lead him indirectly to death
