Many would suggest that his madness begins here‚ and then is pushed further on by the ghost. On this point I disagree. I would say that his madness begins with the death of his father‚ then is pushed forward by the union of his mother and his uncle; and then spirals when he meets the ghost of his Father. However‚ his madness does not stop there.
