sumary

Since the passing of his business partner Jacob Marley, Scrooge has carried on in his miserly ways. He shows kindness and compassion to no one -- not even his faithful employee Bob Cratchit or his benevolent nephew Fred -- and he measures souls by the amount of gold they have amassed. Scrooge is especially bitter about the Christmas holiday and all of the senseless merrymaking that goes with it. On one particular Christmas eve, Scrooge returns from a day at work and is terrified to see the chain-bound ghost of his old friend Marley. Marley warns Scrooge that he too will wear the chains he forged in life, if he doesn't change his ways, and he informs Scrooge that three spirits will visit him. Exactly as Marley predicted, Scrooge is visited by three spirits -- the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Yet to Come. These three spirits take him on an eye-opening journey to Christmases past, present and future, showing Scrooge the impact of the holiday and of his own actions. Scrooge sees and understands much that terrifies and saddens him as he travels with the spirits, but by his journey's end, nothing troubles him so much as the thought that he may not have a chance to change his ways and make things right.
