At the end of the story, Alice's Adventures In Wonderland, it is clearly stated that Alice's Adventure was completely a dream. During dreams we enter into a state of darkness, which exposes us to mystery and the unknown. Throughout Alice's whole journey there was a sense of not knowing who she was, what the characters meant while speaking, and why the animals were acting as they were. The archetype of the color black allows 'darkness' to be associated with it so the reader understands inside knowledge about what chaos was occurring to Alice, and the unconscious thoughts that were spreading throughout her dreams. Looking down the rabbit hole provided her with complete darkness and not being able to see what was below. She was entering into chaos of the unknown, little did she know. By the end of the story she leaves back through the darkness as she slowly awakes.
