A lot of The Crucible is fiction. Arthur Miller designed the play for dramatic purposes. The accusations and the hangings were real. The dates for the trials and hangings were not accurate, nor were the times of the arrest warrants. Also, the characters were not portrayed as they were in the reality of the Salem Witch Hunts. The historical accuracy is almost not accurate at all.
