There is no reason to think that Shakespeare had a collaborator when he wrote Hamlet, unlike some of his other plays. As in the case of King Lear and Henry V (and maybe Taming of the Shrew), Shakespeare dusted off an old play when he wrote Hamlet and rewrote it. The earlier playwright did contribute something towards the final product but Shakespeare did not work with him. Likewise, differences between the printed versions of the play suggest that it was revised, but, unlike Macbeth, Shakespeare appears to have revised his own work.

Why did Shakespeare write To Be or Not To Be?
The words "To be or not to be" are the opening lines of a rather lengthy soliloquy spoken by Hamlet (in the play of the same name written by William Shakespeare), as he contemplates outloud, his very existence and his options after learning the truth of his father's death (murder), and his mother's and uncle's complicity in the act.

Did William Shakespeare write about vampires?
William Shakespeare certainly wrote the world-famous play Hamlet. However, he was not the only one to write this story--he got it from a guy called Belleforest who got it from another guy called Saxo Grammaticus. That is, unless he got it from an earlier play he saw based on Belleforest, as many people believe. Anyway, all of those other versions are pretty dull and badly-written, whereas Shakespeare's play is awesome.
