Don't get me started on this one. I LOVE this story! And my favorite adaptation is that 1951 with Alistair Sim (and some of its deviations from the source material). Also love that Muppet Christmas Carol, too.
I LOVE this dense little story, and it means more to me as time goes on.

Wishing a big 181st happy birthday to arguably the ultimate Christmas ghost story, Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol.
