    I think that the theme in ¨Monsters are Due on Maple Street¨ by Rod Sterling, is that fear can make you act out in ways that you usually wouldn’t.

In the end, you could see these two figures talking about how it happens the same every time. At the…

    hand-colored prints. An interesting example of an unconventional medium is an artwork called “Maple Leaves on a River” created by Katsushika Hokusai (1760-1849). This artist took a sheet of paper he had painted blue and let a chicken with red paint on his feet run freely on it. Hokusai created this artwork that communicated a sensation to his audience of a fall day by the river without actually showing this. “Maple Leaves on a River” is a perfect example of an artist using an offbeat…

William Golding’s classic, the Lord of the Flies, and the Twilight Zone episode, “The Monsters Due on Maple Street”, share a cynical theme portraying how savagery and chaos loom in everyone just bubbling beneath the surface of civilization and order. Both of the works show the common theme that evil lives in everyone by placing their…

    In “The Monsters Are Due on Maple Street” by Rod Serling the characters and events advance the importance of the plot, but analyzing the plot is different. They do it through the characters thoughts, actions, and speech. The evidence in this selection is when Don said “He wasn't even interested.” to Charlie because when the unidentified flying object flew over Maple Street everyone looked except for the Goodmans. So everyone started to suspect that the Goodmans were the alien family that was…
