What really drove me into this s story was its setting. The reading was not at all hard to read, i saw the tress and the cart Goodman brown was riding in, the witch on his right, the ribbon falling from the sky with a spotlight on it. This among all other short stories read here, this one is so far considered the best.
I ponder whether after this incdent, did goodman brown sell his soul?
I mean, his life changed right after the whole incident. I felt that, beyond what we read, Brown made some kind of deal at some point in his life to be hit by this kind of attack by witches.
But then again, whats to say they were really witches, i also believe it was the devil playing its tricks. Lets not forget, the "Devil" did state that he met his father and grandfather, so it must of been hard to say "no, your wrong". Whos to say what was the truth in this story.
Ill have to admit, this story has placed me on hold to my holiday shopping and has gotten me picking up books and Halloween based stories, almost forgot that Halloween was right around the corner.
