In the book The Crucible why does tituba confess?

Tituba confesses because Abigail basically puts her in a corner and blames her for the entire evil practice performed in the woods. She confesses more in depth to her association with the Devil once she is threatened by her master, Reverend Parris, with being whipped to death, and by Putnam, who said that she should be hanged.


What is wrong with betty parris?

What motivates does tituba act the way she does?

I'm guessing you mean Tituba from the Crucible. She acts the way she does at first because she is a loyal servant to the Parris family but then has a change of heart and does not want to be put to death. So she acts in fear of being put to death and that is why she lies and "turns to God" and then blames other people of being controlled by the devil.

Why did Abigail Williams say she was a witch?

If this is in reference to the Crucible, then she had confessed to a witch after she saw Tituba coaxed into "conffesing" to seeing the devil. When Hale asked her if there were any others she saw with the devil, Abigail gained the idea of confessing, so that she could say that she saw Elizabeth Proctor with the devil. (Whom she wanted dead because of her love affair with John Proctor)
