Shakespeare play Hamlet open when a ghost, dressed in armour is sighted on the battlements of Elsinore castle. He resembles Hamlet's dead father, the old king. But the ghost won't talk to anyone until it first talks to Hamlet.

In the episode Woman in Black, we see a figure dressed in a hoodie, gloves and boots (battle gear) on the outside hallway of a motel. It resembles battlements. Sgt. Wu tries to talk to the woman but she resists him and disappears. She later shows up in Nick's house and he's the first person she speaks to saying "Nick, Nickie". Nick then recognizes her as a "ghost from out of his past" his supposedly dead mother, Kelly.

The ghost in Hamlet tells him his father was murdered and that Hamlet should avenge his death. But the ghost says don't do anything to Gertrude, Hamlet's mother. She betrayed Hamlet's father, her first husband, by "forgettting" him and remarrying another man.

Kelly kills Kimura, avenging the death of Nick's father. While Julliette is in a coma "forgetting" her first love Nick. Kelly tells Nick not to leave the one's he loves. So Nick watches over Juliette even after he finds out she has "feelings" for another man.

By the final act Hamlet's mother finally realizes that she is guilty of contributing to Hamlet's father's death. She did not intend to kill him, but her affair with his brother encouraged King Claudius to have old King Hamlet killed.

In the episode Cry Havoc Juliette admits to Nick that she facilated the death of Kelly Burkhardt by betraying her to Kenneth.

In the final act of the play, Gertrude takes the poison meant for Hamlet and avenges her crime against her  first husband, Hamlet's father.

In Cry Havoc, Nick tries to kill Juliette but he cannot. So another Grimm, Trubel, shots her for him.

The death of Queen Gertrude puts to rest the ghost of Hamlet's father. Just as the death of Kelly Burkhardt is tied to the death of Juliette.

The roles in Hamlet might be:

Hamlet = Nick Burkhardt

ghost = Kelly Burkhardt

Queen Gertrude = Juliette Silverton

King Claudius = Sean Renard

The hired assassin who poisoned Hamlet's father = Kimura
