What secondary Characters do I need to know?!

Malcolm and Donaldbain so we can see their reactions to the King’s death. They are also quite important the story.

The three witches are important as they add a twist to the story and have set a sort of benchmark for the  rest of the story.

Why did the witches appear?

The witches appear to add a storyline to the book. If it wasn’t for the witches Macbeth would of have been made king which meant that there would have to be a different plot. In my opinion I think that the witches make the story interesting.
