At his time, there were no props, no backstage, every character entered the stage on his feet and exitted the same way, except when it was dead. In this case the authors had to write lines such as "Carry this ugly/sad corpse away, soldiers!" and out he went!

What does the ghost in Hamlet symbolize?

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.

How did ghosts enter the stage at the Globe Theatre?

Not real ghosts, presumably, but stage ghosts. Ghosts appear in the following Shakespearean plays: Hamlet, Julius Caesar, and Richard III. In Hamlet, the stage directions say only "Enter Ghost", which could mean that he entered through the same doors of all the other actors. Indeed in Act 1 Scene 5 he must enter through the same door as Hamlet as Hamlet is following him. The same can be said for Caesar's Ghost and the Ghosts in Richard III. They could also appear on the balcony. Using the trapdoor would have been awkward and ineffective.
