- Not well liked : "little good to be said of him" "cut a villainous path"
- "many enemies" : paranoid, feels persecuted all the time
- Twisted priorities: "The ministry is at stake, my ministry and perhaps your cousin's life" - values his ministry position more than Betty's life.

- Local Clergyman, Father of Betty
- Discovered dancing girls with Tituba

- "This is a clear attack against the court" - arrogant and confident man at beginning of Witch Trials : narrow- minded, believes all against the beliefs of the trials to be wrong.
- At end Parris has "a mad look these days" - not right in the head, Abigail's departure left him scarred, doubts about the trust of the girls.
- "I would postpone these hangin's for a time" Tries to redeem himself at the very end.

- Most dislikeable person- puts his own reputation above daughter and townspeople.
- Concerned about income= self- centred. Should be concerned about Betty
- Act 4: distressed by dispute of wandering cows and the money robbed by niece, Abigail. Should be concerned about disarray of townspeople and hangings of his Parishioners.
