Where did the Murder of Gonzago" come from?

(Don't just say it's the play within a play in Hamlet) I know that much. I wanted to look into the origin of that play -- did it really exist or did Shakespeare make it up for the purposes of Hamlet? If anyone knows the origin of that play within Hamlet, please let me know. Thanks!
