Storyline
Miser Ebenezer Scrooge is awakened on Christmas Eve by spirits who reveal to him his own miserable existence, what opportunities he wasted in his youth, his current cruelties, and the dire fate that awaits him if he does not change his ways. Scrooge is faced with his own story of growing bitterness and meanness, and must decide what his own future will hold: death or redemption. Written by Jim Beaver <jumblejim@prodigy.net>

Trivia
This is the Disney Company's third involvement with an adaption of A Christmas Carol, the first being Mickey's Christmas Carol and the other, The Muppet Christmas Carol, thus making this Disney adaption the first not to have the roles played by other character (ie, Mickey Mouse/Kermit as Bob Crachit, Goofy/Statler as Jacob Marley, etc.) See more »Goofs
Anachronisms: In the scene where the Ghost of Christmas Present shows Scrooge the two children, the boy says "Naff off!" to Scrooge. The expression was not coined until the 1960s and did not enter general use until the following decade when it was used as a substitute for swearing in a popular, early evening BBC comedy.
