The Setting of Twilight

In class, we have been talking about medieval times, and the setting of medieval times. When we talked about it, most people thought of dark, powerful times of extreme architecture and influential ideas. This very much related to the setting of the novel Twilight.
Twilight takes place in Forks, Washington. Forks is a dreary place where it always is raining. Forks is a perfect place for Edward and his family of vampires to reside in the outdoors without getting noticed for their sparkling skin. Forks can be a dark and mysterious place, just like Edward is. The woods also generate that same dark, creepy feeling. It further is shown when in New Moon, Edward warns Bella to stay out of the woods because "he is not the most dangerous thing out there..." Forks and its woods create the feeling of uneasiness and darkness, just like some of the feeling in medieval times.
