So you can see that if people were talking about working havoc, then they would also logically have said they wrought havoc using the past tense form when they were talking about the past. In fact, Oxford Dictionaries says wrought havoc is an acceptable variant of wreaked havoc. And here's a little bit more about the words wreak and wrought. As for wrought, besides being an archaic past tense form of work in the sense of meaning to shape or forge, today it's also an adjective and you'll hear it being used in phrases such as wrought iron, which is essentially iron worked into different shapes. Finally, a common mistake is to say that someone wrecked havoc of wreaked havoc. The words may sound a lot alike, but you don't wreck havoc. So remember, you can wreak havoc and work havoc. And if you did it in the past, you may have wreaked or wrought havoc, but just don't wreck it. Hey, Fidelity. What's it cost to invest with the Fidelity app?
