The ghost confirms what Hamlet's "prophetic soul" suspected: Claudius killed his father. He gives many useful details about the murder that Hamlet can use to try to prove it. Hamlet also learns details about the afterlife, but he seems to ignore this. In a later scene, he even talks about the afterlife as somewhere nobody ever comes back from!
i saw the goast of your father
Claudius married Hamlet's mother and became Hamlet's stepfather in the place of his father. He also replaced Hamlet's father as king.
Hamlet's father was King, but then killed by Hamlet's uncle. Hamlet's mom then married the King's brother. Hamlet was visited by his father's ghost, and as a result wanted to expose the killer of his father.

His father, Old Hamlet. The ghost who later speaks to him.
What will Hamlet do with the information he received from his father's ghost regarding his murder? Will Hamlet avenge his father's death?
if you are asking this for, say, a homework assignment, then I recommend you figure it out on your own, as your teacher could find this easily.The ghost in Shakespeare's Hamlet is Hamlet's father, who is dead. In Hamlet, Hamlet's father is killed by Hamlet's uncle. Hamlet's father's ghost (the ghost) comes back to basically tell Hamlet what happened, and to tell him (more or less) to have revenge on Hamlet's uncle.
Hamlet did not become king after his father died because Claudius, Hamlet's uncle, married Hamlet's mother and became king instead.
Hamlet's father is also named Hamlet. He was King Hamlet of Denmark until he died, allegedly because of his brother Claudius, who took his kingdom and his wife.
Hamlet's uncle Claudius killed Hamlet's father (called Hamlet Sr.). The ghost of Hamlet Sr. comes back from the dead and tells Hamlet Jr. so. Hamlet Jr. confirms this by re-enacting the murder as a play, which upsets Uncle Claudius.
