About this story

Prince Hamlet returns to Denmark after the sudden death of his father and discovers that his mother has already married his uncle Claudius, the new king. Then his father’s ghost appears with a terrible accusation: Claudius murdered him and stole the throne. Unsure whether the ghost can be trusted, Hamlet pretends to lose his mind while searching for proof. The royal court becomes a dangerous world of secrets, spying and deception, and Hamlet’s actions begin hurting the people closest to him, including the innocent Ophelia. As the truth emerges, Hamlet must decide whether to take revenge and accept the deadly consequences that may follow.
