Detailed explanation-1: -Q. What did Marcellus, Bernardo, Francisco, and Horatio see outside the castle? The ghost of Hamlet Jr.
Detailed explanation-2: -On the guards’ platform at Elsinore, Horatio waits with Barnardo and Marcellus to question a ghost that has twice before appeared. The Ghost, in the form of the late King Hamlet of Denmark, appears but will not speak. Horatio decides to tell his fellow student, Prince Hamlet, about the Ghost’s appearance.
Detailed explanation-3: -Horatio does not believe the ghost exists until he sees it himself. The ghost of the king is dressed in the armour he wore when he conquered Fortinbras and seized land from Norway.
Detailed explanation-4: -Horatio is with Bernardo and Marcellus because they want Horatio to see the ghost that they have been seeing.
Detailed explanation-5: -Horatio is with Bernardo and Marcellus because they want Horatio to witness the appearance of the apparition so that they will have someone else acknowledge its happening.
