Ebenezer Scrooge LOVES Christmas One Christmas Eve, after Scrooge, his wife and his son have gone to bed, Ebenezer is awoken by a group of strange visitors to his room; the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present and Future, as well as two other versions of... himself One Scrooge is a stingy miser, and the other is a battle-hardened solider, criss-crossed with scars. The ghosts tell the Scrooges that an event in the past has split their lives into three different courses. This splintering of one life into three has put all of creation at risk. The three Scrooges travel through time once again, but this time, it's not Ebenezer's soul at stake, but the whole universe.
