It was his job. He was a professional playwright. Hamlet was a story that had already been around for a while and (we think) had already been made into a play. Basically, the boys were sitting around and someone suggested a remake of the old Hamlet play. Shakespeare must have thought he could make something out of the story. Boy, was he right.
