Ebenezer Scrooge, a miserly old curmudgeon who spurns Christmas as a â€œhumbug,â€ is given the chance to redeem himself through the intervention of four Spirits on Christmas Eve. If reading Dickensâ€™s most beloved story doesn't put you in the true spirit of Christmas, you may be beyond redemption.

As Scroogeâ€™s nephew Fred says, â€œI have always thought of Christmas time...as a good time: a kind, forgiving, charitable, pleasant time: the only time I know of, in the long calendar of the year, when men and women seem by one consent to open their shut-up hearts freely, and to think of people below them as if they really were fellow-passengers to the grave, and not another race of creatures bound on other journeys.â€

Or as Tiny Tim put it more succinctly, â€œGod bless us every one!â€
