A Christmas Carol (1984)



Made for ABC, airing  December 17th in the US.
Filmed entirely in the UK.
The story: Ebenezer Scrooge is a businessman who only cares about his money.
On the eve of Christmas, he is visited by the spirit of his late work partner trying to warn him that if he doesn't change his ways now, he will walk in chains for all eternity for all the uncaring and hopelessness he has tried to cause.
The spirit also warns him that during the course of the night, Ebenezer will be visited by a few different spirits. For what... he is not told.
After being visited by the spirits, Ebenezer finds himself sorry for all the uncaring and misconceptions he has put into the hearts of people he loves and cares about. He finally makes an effort to make things right once again.
