Horatio was brought to Elsinore by the ghost of Hamlet's father, King Hamlet, who appeared to him and two of his fellow soldiers while they were on watch. Horatio was called by the ghost to tell Prince Hamlet that the ghost was his father and that he had been murdered by his brother, Claudius. Horatio was then tasked with convincing Hamlet that the ghost was telling the truth. Once Horatio had told the prince what the ghost had said, he suggested that Hamlet should act as if he were insane in order to ensure his safety and to help him uncover the truth of his father's death. Horatio also advised Hamlet to feign madness and use it to his advantage to find out the truth about his father's death. He also suggested that Hamlet should not act too hastily as he could be putting himself in danger if he made the wrong choices.
