The story follows the journey of miserly Ebenezer Scrooge, who despises the joy and warmth of Christmas. On Christmas Eve, he is visited by the ghost of his former business partner, Jacob Marley, who warns him of the consequences of his selfishness. Throughout the night, Scrooge is visited by three spirits: the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Yet to Come. These spirits show him his past, present, and future, revealing the impact of his actions on others. The experiences lead Scrooge to transform into a kinder, more generous person who rediscovers the true meaning of Christmas: love, compassion, and the importance of helping others.
