Miserly Ebenezer Scrooge is visited on Christmas Eve by the three
ghosts of Christmas. They show him the joy of Christmas, and
wretchedness of his own legacy. Inspired and chastened by what he
has seen, Scrooge resolves to change and from then on embraces and
promotes the true spirit of Christmas with kindness, generosity
and warmth.
