Guide 2 Christmas   >   Christmas Ghost Story Christmas Ghost Story Reading and telling ghost stories is a Christmas tradition in many countries including Britain. The tradition probably dates back to pre-Christian times, when Yule and the Winter Solstice were thought to be associated with evil spirits. Probably the most famous Christmas ghost story is "A Christmas Carol" written by Charles Dickens in 1843. It tells the tale of Ebenezer Scrooge, a mean and miserly old man, who is visited by the ghost of his dead business partner and of Christmases' past, present and future, all in an effort to turn him away from his wicked ways.

The magic of the seasonal tales he created for the readers of Household Words and All The Year Round has remained undiminished through the years and are now brought together in one volume. Herein lies the opportunity to delve into the grim novella of The Haunted Man and the Ghost's Bargain, witness the mysterious events in The Haunted House and experience the chilling drama of The Signal Man.
