Which 4 of the shakespeare plays do ghosts appear?
To my knowledge, Hamlet and Macbeth, are two, though I am by no means an expert. Hamlet's father's ghost appears three times, and Banquo's ghost appears to Macbeth at a banquet.There is also a ghost in his Julius Caesar, the ghost of Caesar who appears to Brutus.However, the ghostliest Shakespeare play is Richard III. Richard is visited by the ghosts of everyone he has murdered the night before the battle of Bosworth Field.All in all, there are four Shakespeare plays with ghosts.Hamlet (the ghost of Hamlet's father), Macbeth (the ghost of Banquo), Julius Caesar (the ghost of Caesar) and Richard III (the ghosts of all of Richard's victims: Prince Edward, Henry VI, his brother George, Rivers, Grey, Vaughan, his two nephews, Hastings, his wife and Buckingham)This is not easy to answer. Is Ariel a ghost (the Tempest)? Is the little orphan boy in A Midsummer Nights Dream?There are several ghosts in Richard III (at least five); probably one in Troilus and Cressida; one in Julius Caesar; at least one in Macbeth (but probably more); at least one in Hamlet; and about 4 in Cymbeline.But for a proper answer one would need to define precisely what one means by 'ghost'.

How does the ghost react when the cock crows?
The Ghost has to leave Hamlet because morning is about to come. In Shakespearean times, it is believed that dead spirits cannot dwell during the daytime which is why they come during the evening. Since the cock crows, that means the sun is about to rise and The Ghost must leave.
