Abigail Williams receives a form of power and influence as a reward from her uncle, Reverend Parris, in Arthur Miller's play "The Crucible." Her uncle's position in Salem allows her to manipulate the town's fear of witchcraft to her advantage, enabling her to accuse others and avoid punishment for her own actions. This newfound authority feeds her ambition and desire for control, particularly over John Proctor. Ultimately, her uncle's support facilitates her role in the hysteria that grips Salem.
