Farewell, Ophelia

While the gravediggers are making Ophelia's grave and talking to Hamlet, you see that the ground is littered with skulls.  This implies that they have been using the ground for mulitiple burials, which makes sense when you see how small the graveyard is.

My only thought when Laertes holds the dead Ophelia once more, my only thought was: DISTURBING!

It takes them a minute to recognize Hamlet, but as soon as he reveals himself, Laertes goes after him.
What is it with these boys and Ophelia's dead body?  I mean, I guess I can somewhat understand the situation, but it still seems a little creepy.
