In Elie Wiesel's Night, Mrs. Schachter, the "madwoman," repeatedly screams that she sees flames. When the train arrives at the concentration camp, the other Jews see that in this case she is right: they see the flames from the crematorium chimney. What effect does this image have in the memoir? It is the first time that Wiesel makes it clear to the reader that the Jews are in danger. It proves that the flames Mrs. Schachter claimed to see earlier are also real. It produces the terrible realization that the real world around them is as mad as Mrs. Schachter. It shows that the other prisoners are seeing visions, just as Mrs. Schachter is.

In the book Night when they were on the train Mrs. Schachter had a vision of fire and flames, everyone thought she was crazy but when they got to the camp they came to an understanding that she was right. The Jews became afraid of what was going to happen to them since smoke was coming from the crematoriums. Since they were burning the Jew's bodies. When they got to the camp Elie along with his father had to lie about their age to save there lives. It was also the last time he saw his mother and sister when they were divided into a male and female group.
