"A Christmas Carol" follows the story of Ebenezer Scrooge, a miserly old man who despises Christmas and all things joyful. On Christmas Eve, Scrooge is visited by the ghost of his former business partner, Jacob Marley, who warns him to change his ways to avoid a grim fate. He is then visited by three spirits—the Ghost of Christmas Past, the Ghost of Christmas Present, and the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come. Through these encounters, Scrooge reflects on his life and choices, ultimately leading him to embrace the true spirit of Christmas, transform his character, and spread kindness and generosity.
