miserly Ebenezer Scrooge, who hates Christmas but is visited by his dead partner Jacob Marley and three ghosts (Past, Present, Yet to Come) on Christmas Eve, forcing him to confront his selfish life, see the suffering of the poor (like Tiny Tim), and glimpse a bleak future if he doesn't change, leading to his joyous transformation into a kind, generous man by Christmas morning, saving Tiny Tim and embracing the holiday spirit.
