What was Hamlet's plan to avenge his father?

Answer 1

hamlet avenged his father by stabbing his uncle who married his fathers wife to get the throne. hamlet did this because his fathers ghost visited and told him that hamlets uncle (his fathers brother) killed him... in the end everyone ended up dying

Answer 2

Hamlet did not know if the ghost was a devil trying to make him do evil things so he planned to have a play based on his father's murder and catch the conscience to the king. After the king reacted to the play Hamlet found out that the king did kill his father. When Hamlet was on his way to kill the king, the king was on his knees praying and Hamlet didn't want to kill the king and send him to heaven. At the match between Hamlet and Laertes, he found out that the king was trying to poison him but killed his mother instead, Hamlet stabbed the king with the poisonous sword and forced the king to drink the poisonous wine that killed him mother.

Answer 3

Hamlet decides that he will make his mother and uncle think he is crazy and while they are busy doing this he will plot how to kill them in revenge forn the murder of his father. He will put on a play that shows the murder " the play is the thing" . The whole story leads up to this event and his fight. It is a play within a play. At the end he dies " good night sweet, prince."

Answer 4

In the original Hamlet story, the one Shakespeare used as a source, Hamlet played a deep game in which he pretended to be insane, thus making Feng (Claudius to you) drop his guard. His apparently irrational behaviour was in fact entirely directed to making the weapon with which he completed his revenge. But in Shakespeare's play, although we have Hamlet putting an antic disposition on, he does not seem to be clear about his plan for revenge. He spends a lot of time doubting the Ghost's word and testing it, and in deflecting the attempts by Claudius to spy on him. But the actual act of killing Claudius is usually far from his mind. At the end of II, 2 when he feels that he could drink hot blood, his plan is to harangue his mother, not kill his stepfather. In II, 3 he is given an opportunity to complete the revenge, and for a minute he decides to take it ("and now I'll do it") but then doesn't. Hamlet says he will kill Claudius when he is "drunk asleep, or in his rage, or in the incestuous pleasure of his bed, at gaming, swearing, or about some act that has no relish of salvation in't" but he makes no plan to do so. He doesn't try to get him drunk, or hide himself behind an arras in his mother's bedroom to catch him having sex. No, having come to this conclusion, he forgets all about it and turns to his favourite pastime, lecturing his mother. In a reflex and spontaneous action he kills Polonius thinking him to be Claudius, but this is not the part of any plan. In the end, after his experience with the pirates, Hamlet concludes that he cannot plan his life, and certainly cannot plan his revenge, and gives up trying: "If it be now, 'tis not to come; if it be not to come, it will be now; if it be not now, yet it will come. The readiness is all."
