The wallpaper is yellow with this intricate design that makes her go crazy. She becomes obsessed with the wall paper.  She believes that the wall paper is moving and there are women behind the wall moving the wall paper to mess with her, and at night they crawl out of the wall and "creep" around.  megschrei https://padlet.com/megschrei/pgjjdfht36/wish/22854061 2014-03-06 15:37:29 UTC https://padlet.com/megschrei/pgjjdfht36/wish/22854061 By the end of the story she has gone completey mad and the Women behind the wallpaper are symbolic for herself being stuck inside of her own mind. megschrei https://padlet.com/megschrei/pgjjdfht36/wish/22855721 2014-03-06 15:47:23 UTC https://padlet.com/megschrei/pgjjdfht36/wish/22855721 It was an amazing short story.
