No, he doesn't exist, the works of Shakespeare do exist but the man itself does not.

How come?? because he died 400 years ago. And yes, there really was such a person: there is a pile of documentary evidence proving that he lived and was an actor and was credited during his lifetime with writing a number of the works attributed to him. No sane person can doubt that.

Some theorize that Shakespeare might have been a woman under a pseudonym in order to avoid receiving criticism for being a woman writer, or some other person who, for reasons unknown, did not want to be acknowledged as the writer. But these theories suffer from a serious problem: a lot of the literature of the day was published anonymously.
