Prepare a dinner fit for a Cratchit, then watch this classic Christmas movie.
Shh, the Movie's Starting!
When Ebenezer Scrooge went to sleep Christmas Eve, he had no idea he would wake up a changed man. To prevent him from going the way of his deceased former business partner Jacob Marley--who was an equally miserable person--Scrooge is visited by three ghosts set on reviving his spirit. First it's the Ghost of Christmas Past, then the Present, then the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come. As always, the third time's a charm!
