episode 24: Ep25 Dickens: A Christmas Carol Chapter 4
A Christmas Ghost Story by Charles Dickens
The ominous presence of the Ghost of Christmas Yet To Come fills Scrooge with terror as he comes face to face with his own mortality and the realisation of how little his death – nay! the rejoicing his death – would impact others based on how he is now.
“‘Ghost of the Future!’ he exclaimed, ‘I fear you more than any spectre I have seen. But as I know your purpose is to do me good, and as I hope to live to be another man from what I was, I am prepared to bear you company, and do it with a thankful heart. Will you not speak to me?’ It gave him no reply. The hand was pointed straight before them.”
