The Gothic Library Presents "A Christmas Carol"

A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens

Some say there is no worse than London's own Ebenezer Scrooge. But on a cold, foggy, and dark Christmas Eve, spirits from the other side force him to confront his past, present, and future, in a grand experiment to discover if a bad man is truly beyond redemption.

Originally published in 1843, this novella remains a holiday staple. This enchanting new adaptation will shine light on details and moments often excised from popular retellings so that listeners may garner a newer understanding of Dickens's most popular miser.
