Young Old Good Bad

I think Hawthrone wrote the story "Young Goodman Brown" to express himself something that might happened to him in real life. Dreams can foreshadow/help you solve problems in future life. 

Stephen King was so affected by the story because he knows what humanity can do to you even if they act nice to you. Human beings know how to hide behind your back. The power of our imaginations is so powerful that we can look at things that we might not know but our mind does it feels that touch that it helps us figure things out.
