Abstract
I do not think the suggestions that the Ghost on its first appearance is Banquo’s, and on its second Duncan’s, or vice versa, are worth discussion. But the question whether Shakespeare meant the Ghost to be real or a mere hallucination, has some interest, and I have not seen it fully examined.
