Evil Afoot in LOTF

Well, as the title obviously implies, my topic to "track", so to speak, is evil. We see a lot of not necessarily evil things going on, dissent and some minor feuds. However, there is an instance where the word evil is actually used to describe some sinister looking trees. It seems also to show in this book that on that on the whole, the night is full of terror and fear and is driven by some evil force. This said "evil" seems to spread fear among the boys, giving them nightmares and also just spooking the living bejeezus out of them. I

If I really had to guess who would end up the main "villain" responsible for this evil, it's probably gonna be the ever-irksome Piggy or that shifty guy Simon who seems to just disappear for a while to suddenly come back, though he never says what he as been doing and really doesn't say much at all. One of those two, I bet, is going to end up killing one of the boys, or doing something malicious and bring the hand of evil upon them. Well, thanks for reading.

  1. In response to your second paragraph, you really think Piggy would be able to do that? I think it'd be pretty funny though it seems a bit unrealistic to me.

  2. I agree with James R. I just couldn't see Piggy going completely bonkers on everyone. It would be pretty wizard, but still...

  3. Great title and interesting choice for the villain, Charles. I will admit your argument has some merit, but Piggy?
