It's difficult to say. One possibility is that the ghost was fulfilling Banquo's promise to "fail not the feast" and so he sits in the only available place. Or possibly, he wants to sit in the place which will be sure to get Macbeth's attention. Or he is trying to twist Macbeth's tail by reminding him of the witches' prophecy by sitting in the king's seat, except that the prophecy said his children would be kings not him.
In the Shakespearean play, Macbeth [c. 1014-August 15, 1057] held a banquet at Forres Palace after his coronation at Scone. But when it came time for everyone present to be seated, Macbeth wouldn't take his seat. The reason was the pre-empting of the seat by the ghost of Banquo. Banquo was heading back to the Palace for the banquet when he was accosted by three murderers. He made it no further than the nearby park, because his throat was slit. But his ghost made it to the banquet, on time and to unsettle Macbeth, who had hired the killers.
=The brave, noble general whose children, according to the witches' prophecy, will inherit the Scottish throne. Like Macbeth, Banquo thinks ambitious thoughts, but he does not translate those thoughts into action. In a sense, Banquo's character stands as a rebuke to Macbeth, since he represents the path Macbeth chose not to take: a path in which ambition need not lead to betrayal and murder. Appropriately, then, it is Banquo's ghost-and not Duncan's-that haunts Macbeth. In addition to embodying Macbeth's guilt for killing Banquo, the ghost also reminds Macbeth that he did not emulate Banquo's reaction to the witches' prophecy.=
Macbeth decides to kill Banquo out of fear. he is afrait of Banquo out of two reasons, the first being that Banquo had defied him in act two by not agreeing to help him. the second reason is that Banquo is questioning how Macbeth got so many things go his way after the witches prophosy The third reason Macbeth is afraid is that the witches prophesise that Banquo's son will sit on the crown, if his son is sitting on the crown Macbeth will obviusly be dead
Lady Macbeth sends everyone home early because she is afraid of what Macbeth might say.
In most cases, the area in a theatre where the audience sits is called the "house."
Macduff takes Macbeth's place at the banquet in the play "Macbeth." Macbeth had planned to sit at the head of the table but gets unsettled by Banquo's ghost, so Macduff takes his place instead.
Macbeth sees the ghost of the recently murdered Banquo.
In the Shakespearean play, Macbeth [c. 1014-August 15, 1057] held a banquet at Forres Palace after his coronation at Scone. But when it came time for everyone present to be seated, Macbeth wouldn't take his seat. The reason was the pre-empting of the seat by the ghost of Banquo. Banquo was heading back to the Palace for the banquet when he was accosted by three murderers. He made it no further than the nearby park, because his throat was slit. But his ghost made it to the banquet, on time and to unsettle Macbeth, who had hired the killers.
In Shakespeare's play, MacBeth (1606), Banquo was a Scottish thane (roughly speaking, baron) whose murder was arranged by his former friend, MacBeth, an army general obsessed with becoming king, paranoid about the competition, and rapidly becoming insane through guilt over all the people he's killed to get his own way. MacBeth's wife shares and surpasses his ambition for power, and also goes mad.The murdered Banquo's ghost appears to MacBeth during a banquet: the ghost comes into the room and sits in MacBeth's chair, which terrifies him. None of the guests can see Banquo, so they understandably consider MacBeth is becoming mentally unstable when he stops eating and argues at length with an empty seat.Learned people argue about who Banquo was, whose ghost was it really, did the ghost really appear, and so on, quite forgetting that the play MacBeth isn't an attempt by Shakespeare to record history but simply his use of words in order to tell an exciting story, using bits of history and supposed history as a background, and to explore human nature in frequently uncomfortable depth.It's still just a story, and in the story the ghost isBanquo's and it does come into the banquet and doesproceed to sit in MacBeth's chair.The word banquet has nothing to do with Banquo who was considered by many, in Shakespeare's time and still today, to be a Scottish historical figure. Banquet comes from a French word for bench, as in a table for food. Maybe Banquo's name suggested the ghostly banquet scene to Shakespeare; only the writer knows for sure.

I would say, Banquo had will. His will out weighed any temptations he had towards his goals. Though, just as ambitious as Macbeth, Banquo held back, happy to sit in the back seat as Macbeth explored the front row. This, truthfully would have been better in the long run (you know what they say about the tortoise and the hare) if it wasn't for Macbeth's greed and paranoia.
i sit in one place with my friends happy and quite i choose to sit in one place beacuse i dont want to go away now.

A ghost chair is a chair that was designed to make you feel like your not in a chair at all. They are really scary and fun to sit in. You can scare your friends with them too.
The best place to sit is in the front row. Do not sit behind the announcers because you cant see.
In the place where you are not sitting.
