Answer 1

is there a story for this?

Answer 2

he three witches definitely got Macbeth's ambitious attention with their predictions of promotions to Thane of Cawdor and then of King of Scotland. But Banquo was skeptical. He even suggested that they must have gone a little bit crazy to be seeing the witches and believing in their existence and their predictions. Subsequently, he conceded that if they really had seen the witches, then they needed to be suspicious of the reasons. He cut right to the chase when he suggested that the forces of evil made their presence and powers known only to the detriment of mortals.
