Abigail Williams is the antagonist in the play. She had an adulterous relation with John Proctor. But John is married to Elizabeth. Out of jealousy for Elizabeth, Abigail with some other girls, tries to invoke curse on Elizabeth so that after her death, she could marry John.

<em>"I know how you clutched my back behind your house and sweated like a stallion whenever I come near! I saw your face when she put me out and you loved me then and you do now! "</em>

She knows the truth of the girls and resist witnessing falsity against the Proctor's. But when pressed down by the situation in the courtroom she sides with Abigail and the girls and accuses Proctor's of being witch-craft practitioners.
