episode 23: Ep23 Dickens: A Christmas Carol Chapter 2
A Christmas Ghost Story by Charles Dickens
For Scrooge, the hauntings have begun, and were not just a product of some bad food. The Ghost of Christmas Past – Scrooge’s past – takes him back through Christmases of long ago with an unexpected impact on Scrooge.
“The curtains of his bed were drawn aside, I tell you, by a hand. Not the curtains at his feet, nor the curtains at his back, but those to which his face was addressed. The curtains of his bed were drawn aside; and Scrooge, starting up into a half-recumbent attitude, found himself face to face with the unearthly visitor who drew them: as close to it as I am now to you, and I am standing in the spirit at your elbow."
