Question:

What happened to Seneca Crane in the Hunger Games?

I'm a bit confused as to what happened to him. I guess I skimed a bit at a certain important part of the book. When Seneca Crane's name was written on the dummy during training, why did the people gasp at the name written in berry juice? What happened to him? PS. I am at the begining of Mockingjay. So no spoilers please. (:

Answer:

Seneca Crane was the head gamemaker in for the 74th Hunger Games. President Snow had him hung because he changed the rules to allow both Katniss and Peeta to win.

The same thing happened to me when i was reading the second book. I was so confused because i didn't understand why they were making such a big deal about this person that i didn't remember anything about. But Seneca Crane was the game maker in the first book. He was murdered by Snow and the Capital because Snow blamed Seneca for the fact that two people made it out of the Hunger Games. Hope this helps!
Seneca Crane Hunger Games
In the end of the first book, he was put in a room with a bowl in the middle. In the bowl, there were berries. Very deadly berries. This is significant because in the arena, Peeta and Katniss threatened the Capitol that they would eat them and kill themselves. If that happened, there would be no victor. President Snow wanted Seneca Crane to kill them. But Seneca Crane let there be two victors, instead of one or none. So, back to the point. Seneca Crane was punished because he couldn't listen to the president's orders. So, he was put in a room with no food, water, etc. If he got hungry he, he had to eat the berries. So, he died. I don't know how you missed that, but I hope this helps! :) I LUV U PEETA!
