What are the similarities and differences between the ghost in Hamlet and ghosts in other Shakespearean plays?
Only Hamlet hears it speak. Gertrude cannot see it, but Horatio and the guards can. Is it a real thing or is it a trick of the fog on the battlements, which Hamlet sees as the ghost and imagines speaking? Or maybe is it a bit of both?
What are the similarities between the hyenas in the Lion King and England in hamlet?
The hyenas in the Lion King resemble more the hangers-on Catesby, Ratcliffe and Lovell in Richard III than any characters in Hamlet, and the plot and structure of the film more closely resembles that of Richard III and Macbeth than Hamlet. Nevertheless one might view them as having some resemblance to the government of England, which is tasked with the job of killing Hamlet as the hyenas are tasked with killing Simba. However, the hyenas are hired more as private thugs than as a request from one sovereign to another--they resemble much more the murderers who are hired to kill Banquo and Fleance in Macbeth, and as in Macbeth the father dies but the son gets away. (In Hamlet the usurpation takes place while Hamlet is out of the country.)
Is there a character in Hamlet like macduff in Macbeth?
Laertes best suits the similarities between Macduff and himself. Both of them lost their family because of the protagonist (Hamlet killed Polonius and unintentionally caused Ophelia's death while Macbeth killed Macduff's wife and son). As well, they swore they would take revenge on the protagonist in which both of them successfully did however Laertes did die. Another similarity is that they both do not like the protagonist as much. For example, Laertes does not want Ophelia hanging around with Hamlet as Hamlet could be after her body and not her love while Macduff does not like Macbeth at all since he's been acting crazy and seems like a tyrant.

What do Macbeth and Hamlet have in common?
He has two plans to kill Hamlet. First, he sends Hamlet to England with sealed orders to the King of England to execute Hamlet. That plan fails. Second, Claudius arranges a fencing match of Hamlet against Laertes, where Laertes has a poisoned foil, and Claudius has also poisoned Hamlet's wine. That plan succeeds in killing Hamlet, but Queen Gertrude, Laertes, and Claudius also die, with Claudius killed by his own poison.
