Simon is having a conversation with the Lord of the flies ,the Lord of the flies also happens to be a pigs head on a stick and is the beast yet all the while Simon is almost in a way feels that he is seeing things that are not really there such as the pigs head on the spike with the flies surrounding it .as said here in a quotation” Lord of the flies hung in space before him”and the quote that gives me the impression that he was dreaming is when it said “Simon was inside the mouth. He fell down and lost consciousness.

Why do you believe the pig’s head has such a hypnotic effect on Simon? Is there any evidence in the text to support this?
