A Christmas Carol tells the story of Ebenezer Scrooge, a miserly old man who hates Christmas. He is visited by the ghost of his dead partner, Jacob Marley, and 3 spirits (Past, Present, and Yet to Come) The 3 spirits show him visions of his life, revealing the error of his selfish ways and leading him to a joyful redemption where he embraces generosity, kindness, and the true spirit of Christmas.
