- Thunder - The witches always enter with thunder displaying their supernatural form but also can help represent the terror they create in all ages - for example children and adults are scared of thunder and witches.
- They can be seen as the three fates playing with the string of people's life's - this can then be taken into a modern context of three women playing games - making fools out of men
- The witches seem to want death and destruction everywhere and will do their best to create this - we get the sense they have done this before with their repetitive language
- They are the main Gothic element in the play - in my opinion.
- There present to Macbeth seems almost planned to block of his path and take a deadly one -They help present Macbeth as more of an evil character - for example They tell the future been Macbeth chooses his path from then
