Throughout their marriage, Ethan and Zeena didn’t really communicate and when Zeena says that Mattie Silver’s time of residing with the Fromes is up, Ethan is furious and thinks to himself, “...an evil energy secreted from the long years of silent brooding” (Wharton 50). Although Mattie has only stayed with them for only a year and is relatively incapable of doing the simplest of household chores, a certain happiness is induced in Ethan when he is around the lively Mattie, “To him, who was never gay but in her presence…”(Wharton 14). This passion deep within Ethan is another thing he has to lie to himself about. His duty and obligation to Zeena doesn’t allow for him to divulge and act on his true feelings. In fact, having to lie about his passion towards Mattie drives Ethan to think death is the answer to his

Mattie and Ethan never follow their love due to Ethan's morals and the respect he has for his marriage to Zeena. He wants Zeena to be well and he takes care of her when she is ill. Frome’s feelings for Mattie never oscillate and he wants to be with this woman who is not his wife. Even though Ethan only had one night with Mattie alone, he cannot help but think of what he has done as he sits in the kitchen. Mattie presents minority, beauty, and good health- all of which Zeena does not possess. It seems he favors the more hip, young, and beautiful women than dull, boring, and unattractive women.

Octavia and Sarah both help shape Cameron’s self-image, reflecting the acceptance Cameron has. The last night Cameron went to Stephanie's house to sit out the front, waiting for her to notice him and see how much he cared for her. Octavia had followed him, and asked Cameron to come and sit outside her house instead, Octavia could tell that Stephanie would never see how much Cameron cared for her and Octavia could see how this hurt Cameron.

What kind of woman would go to an extreme to kill not only her king and his daughter, but also her most precious gift, children, all due to love? Euripides Greek drama Medea, which dates back to 431 B.C.E conveys this image of a woman named Medea, who was not only a powerful foreigner who did the impossible to follow the man she loved through ocean waters, but also, viewed as a witch who threatened lives and who was feared. Does Medea really deserve or convey an aura of being a witch? or convey characteristics of being a human being?

Witchcraft seemed to be no stranger to this whole ordeal. I take a few deep breaths and continue to trudge back to the carriage. I hope that the Ruler and witch are back as I wish to have my belongings, but it is possible they are still traveling. I see that the carriage is indeed there, not moving from it spot. So I infer that they have arrived so it’s safe to get my things. I let out a sigh of relief and get my small bags out and head to the mansion where- at the steps- I see the others gathering and talking among themselves- Owen being an exception, only talking with Alice a few times. As I get closer I hear Alex mumble something along the line of ‘Manners’ and ‘Peasants’ I try to make out what else he said but he spoke too softly. “Talking about me?” I say as I walked up and brush my arm against his, a bright and stupid smile sprawled across my face. He looks at me, not wearing the same big smile I haven’t seen him missing so far. He didn’t seem to understand what I was talking about, but it soon dawned on him. “Oh sorry, I'm just not used to it. That's all.” He said with a sickening sweet tone as he then quickly turns around, muttering a few curses. I giggle at this and make my way over to Owen.

Still desperate to win Maxine’s affection, Craig goes and confronts Maxine. Maxine says to Craig, “Do you have any idea what it’s like to have two people look at you with total lust and devotion through the same pair of eyes?

Borrowing from Irish and English traditions, Americans began to dress up in costumes and go house to house asking for food or money. Over time this tradition turned in to today modern “trick or treating”. In the late 1800s, America turned Halloween into a holiday more about community and neighborly get-togethers than about ghosts, and witchcraft. As the centuries changed Halloween parties for both children and adults became the most common way to celebrate the day. Parties focused on games, foods of the season and festive costumes. Parents were encouraged by newspapers and community leaders to take anything “frightening” or “grotesque” out of Halloween celebrations. Because of these efforts, Halloween lost most of its superstitious and religious overtones by the beginning of the twentieth century (Kammen).
