Detailed explanation-1: -In her mad scene, Lady Macbeth declares, “Out, damned spot! Out, I say!” What spot is she talking about? The spot represents Malcolm, who is now attacking Macbeth at Dunsinane Castle. It is an imaginary spot that stands for the evil done by Macbeth.
Detailed explanation-2: -The ‘spot’ she is talking about is the imaginary blood she sees on her hands from the murders and other crimes she and her husband have been involved in. She then says that ‘hell is murky, ’ which means that she already is in ‘hell’ or something like it, and she knows it is gloomy, or murky.
Detailed explanation-3: -Imaginary blood represents guilt for Macbeth and Lady Macbeth. It’s not until after the murder of Duncan that their guilt begins to manifest. As their guilt grows, so does the importance of the blood. What’s more, the imaginary blood also shows how Macbeth and Lady Macbeth both lose a grasp on reality.
