YORICK'S SKULL

THE GHOST OF KING HAMLET

OPHELIA'S DEATH

Hamlet finds this skull, and it prompts him to think about how fleeting out time is on earth.

The ghost of Hamlet's father is an intrusion of the dead into the lives of the living. It signifies guilt, grief, and obligation.

Ophelia's death is the final straw for both Hamlet and Laertes.
