This is not a question.
Blood is used as a symbol representing guilt. It is seen on the hands of Lady Macbeth in 5.1, on Banquo's ghost and the face of his murderer (Macbeth sees it, though the murderer does not notice - Macbeth feels guilt, he does not) in 3.4, and the dagger that Macbeth sees in 2.1, when Macbeth wrestles with the guilt for the deed he is about to do
Macbeth sees a vision of Banquo's ghost sitting in his place at the banquet table. He becomes visibly disturbed and comments that only he can see the ghost, implying that his guilt and paranoia are manifesting as hallucinations.
Where is Macbeth going when he sees the bloody dagger?

The climax of Shakespeare's "Macbeth" occurs in Act 3, Scene 4, when Macbeth sees Banquo's ghost at the banquet he is hosting. This event marks a turning point in the play, as Macbeth's guilt and paranoia begin to consume him.
By the end of the play, Banquo has been dead for some time.
One example of dramatic irony during Macbeth's banquet in Act 3 is when Macbeth sees Banquo's ghost seated at the table, but none of the other guests can see it. This creates tension as Macbeth's reaction to the ghost reveals his guilt, while the other characters remain unaware of the reason for his distress.
MacBeth ends up seeing the ghost of his friend Banquo during his dinner party he throws in (and double check this) Act 4 i believe. Also, before MacBeth kills Duncan in Act 2 he sees a floating dagger as a hallucination. The ghost though, is Banquo.
