Macbeth is a great story written by Shakespeare. This story is filled with guilt and lies. The story is set in Scotland. This story starts with 3 witches creating a magic potion to make their evil prophesy come true. They are the villains in the story. The king at that time was king Duncan who had a son named Malcom, the son who later goes against Macbeth. King Duncan has 2 generals, Macbeth and Banquo. Macbeth has a wife and later both Macbeth and Lady Macbeth get paranoid. Banquo has one son named Fleance.
Macbeth meets 3 witches who tell his future and it comes true. First Macbeth is rewarded Thane of Cawdor. After the dinner with King Duncan, Macbeth and his wife decide to kill the king. So Macbeth did and then he became king. Prophecy also tells that Banquo's descendents will also be king. Macbeth got paranoid and decides to kill Banquo and his son, however his son escapes. Banquo's ghost interferes with the feast and Macbeth gets crazy. This made people think he shouldn't be king and Macduff also thought so. Macduff joins King Duncan's son Malcom to fight against Macbeth. Macduff kills Macbeth in battle.
After the battle Malcom become the king and years later Fleance does
