Young Goodman Brown
Young Goodman Brown is a story with many hidden symbols behind it. I think the story is basically Good vs Evil. The woods almost portrays a "purgatory", Faith is faith, Goodman is the human kind, the Devil is evil, etc. Goodman is tempted and has to choose whether to keep his faith or follow his temptations.

This idea of purgatory is interesting. I'd be curious to hear more about the theory!
