Answer:
1. I expected the play to end with some philosophical or moral message, as it actually ended, as it shows that alienation, paranoia and panic make people easy targets to manipulate.
2. I thought that there were no aliens when at the beginning of the play, where the neighborhood was affected by factors that can happen normally, such as the drop in electricity supply, the existence of introverted people and problems with cars and phones.
3. I believed that aliens existed when the shadow that took over the city appeared and when the aliens did appear.
Explanation:
"The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street" tells the story of a city that had several problems with electricity supply and telephone and television signals, after a giant shadow overtook the city and a very strong flash was seen by all. Cars also began to malfunction, leaving all residents concerned. The townspeople started to think that this was caused by aliens and started to distrust each other, thinking that the neighbors were beings from another planet. This caused great hysteria and paranoia in everyone, driving the city into complete chaos. In the end we learned that the shadow and the malfunction of things were being caused by aliens themselves, who were trying to discover how panic and paranoia allowed human beings to be manipulated.

<span><span><span>Characterization is the process of creating a character. Major characters must possess complex personalities to create interest. If the reader can personally identify with major characters, a story carries added emotional charge. Major characters have their own motives that drive the action of the story. Conflicts occur between characters creating situations that demand resolution. As a story evolves, the personalities and motivations of major characters may change adding to the complexity of the story. Major characters are protected by character shields - a plot device that protects them from the misfortunes perilous for minor characters. The shield can be skill, luck, paranormal force or something unexplained. Major characters can be categorized as: The Protagonist: a hero or heroine of a story, whose progress in life is the storyline of a story. The flaw, problem, conflict or quest that confronts the protagonist provides the substance of a story. The protagonist is usually blessed with virtues that place him on the side of 'good'. 'Good' signifies the philosophical and moral stance that the author assumes the reader sympathizes with. The Tragic Hero: a type of a character whose personality has some tragic flaw (hamartia) that prevents him from being what he wants to be causing him constant suffering. The hamartia provokes the sympathy of the reader. In certain stories, an antagonist is presented as a tragic hero to justify fatal flaws. The Antihero: a type of a protagonist who presents himself more like an antagonist. As the story develops the reader come to understand that the ant-hero is really on the side of 'good'. The Antagonist: a hero or heroine of a story who actively opposes the protagonist hindering the protagonist's progress toward a resolution of his problem. The antagonist represents an opposing force that is depicted as 'evil'. The Villain: the most stereotypical type of an antagonist, depicted as an utterly evil person. The villain has no scruples and hates everyone and everything. The Evil Twin: a type of an antagonist who is the alter ego of the protagonist. This opposition to the protagonist multiplies the effect of conflict in a story. The False Protagonist: a character who is introduced as a protagonist at the beginning of the story but removed from the storyline later on. This character is replaced by another character who is elevated to the level of protagonist. </span> <span>NARRATOLOGY
