No, Betty Parris does not die in Arthur Miller’s play, The Crucible. Throughout the course of the play, Betty is depicted as being in a state of coma or unconsciousness at the beginning, which leads to much speculation and concern among the characters in Salem.
Betty is the daughter of Reverend Parris, and her bizarre behavior after the night in the woods serves as a catalyst for the witch trials that ensue. As the story progresses, she does eventually regain consciousness and her condition becomes less dire. Rather than dying, she plays a pivotal role in the hysteria that grips the town by her involvement in the accusations that follow.
Overall, Betty’s character serves to illustrate the dangers of mass hysteria and the consequences of fear and superstition in a community, but she herself survives the events of the play.
