On Christmas Eve, an old man named Ebenezer 
Scrooge is visited by the spirit of his former 
partner, Jacob Marley.

as Scrooge is now and he warns him to change his 
life.

Ghost of Christmas Present and the Ghost of 
Christmas yet come to visit him. 
The spirits complete their visits in one night giving 
him the opportunity to mend his ways.
