The way that you look at the ghost can be derived by the way he is portrayed by actor and show concept. If he comes across as the evil father coming back for no more than revenge then you could sa he is evil. But if he is taken in stead as a caring and or weak man who has come back to warn his son then he is good. It all depends on the outlook of the audience member really. Kind of like the witches in Macbeth he sets the play in motion, but is it for his own benefit or the benefit of Hamlet?
When Claudius flees from the 'Mousetrap' play, as Hamlet hoped he would.
"This" ghost? What ghost?
yes the ghost was in fact real; at the beginning of the play Horatio, Marcellus and Bernardo see it. however my class today was having a discussion on the vocal manifestation of the ghost - we speculated that the voice of the ghost may be in Hamlet's imagination, if you notice no one BUT Hamlet responds directly to its voice, when the ghost beseech Marcellus and Horatio 'Swear it' they do not react but reply to Hamlet who simply repeats the ghost. parallels are also drawn between the ghost and Hamlet eg. where Ophelia say Hamlet came into her room looking pale and 'as if he had been loosed out of hell' which is where the ghost is believed to have come from. this brings me to another point, back in the day those bunch were very religious, there is a passage in the bible (don't remember where off the top of my head) that says for a vision or some such thing (in this case the voice of the ghost) to have undeniable legitimacy more than one must be present, another passage says that visions of men with open eyes are false and of something evil - historically this is a valid point.
Whenever Hamlet talks about a villain, he's talking about his uncle King Claudius. He's often unwilling to accuse him directly and pretends he's talking in generalities about how everyone's evil. But Claudius is definitely the villain of the piece.

horatio does not want hamlet to follow the ghost because horatio thinks its something evil like the devil in the form of his dead father trying to presuade him
Gertrude. I suppose he may have told Hamlet not to take revenge on Gertrude because the ghost still has affection for her, or because it would be particularly evil for a son to kill his mother, or because the ghost knows that Gertrude was not privy to Claudius's murder, and the murder is what he wants revenge for. Or some combination of these.
