The old Ebenezer Scrooge is a cold-hearted miser, such as one may hardly encounter in the venerable London. He regularly threatens his underpaid employee Bob Cratchit with dismissal if he dares to even glance at the coal scuttle, and he considers Christmas to be a waste of money and time.
However, on the night of December 25th, he receives an unexpected visitor. The spirit of his deceased business partner Jacob Marley, who passed away seven years ago, visits him to warn him of a terrible fate. Three spirits will visit him. At one o'clock in the morning, the Spirit of Christmas Past appears to Scrooge and takes him on a journey through his own past, where he sees himself as a lonely and abandoned boy, as his father could not forgive him for his mother dying in childbirth.
At two o'clock, the second announced visitor appears, the Spirit of Christmas Present. This huge figure takes Scrooge through Christmas Day directly to the humble home of his employee Bob Cratchit and his family. There, Scrooge notices Cratchit's youngest son, Tiny Tim, who is very weak and reliant on a crutch.
Shortly after, the Spirit of Christmas Yet to Come appears, a grim figure concealed by a black hooded cloak. The spirit takes him to the London Stock Exchange, where some businessmen are making fun of a recently deceased colleague. As he brushes the snow off the simple gravestone and deciphers the inscription "Ebenezer Scrooge," he realizes that the unloved solitary dead man was himself. Scrooge collapses and vows on his knees to mend his ways and keep Christmas in his heart, past, present, and future.
