On A Christmas carol by Charles dickens the Marley's ghost tells scrooge that he will be visited by three ghost





(quotes from the book)





``Without their visits,'' said the Ghost, ``you cannot hope to shun the path I tread. Expect the first to-morrow, when the bell tolls One.''





``Couldn't I take 'em all at once, and have it over, Jacob?'' hinted Scrooge.





``Expect the second on the next night at the same hour. The third upon the next night when the last stroke of Twelve has ceased to vibrate. Look to see me no more; and look that, for your own sake, you remember what has passed between us."








But then how come when scrooge woke up after he had been visited by the ghost of christmas yet to come he woke on christmas day?I don't get it...can you explain this to me?

As Scrooge says when he awakens on Christmas Day, the ghosts did it all in one night rather than the three that were threatened. Jacob Marley announced what would happen but he didn't control it. Or... maybe it was all a fantastic, life-changing dream. Dickens leaves us to draw our own conclusion, but emphasizes that whatever happened - visitations or a dream - it changed Scrooge's way of living forever.
Reply:because the ghost of Christmas YET to come showed him the future of what will happen later so when he woke up he had to change his ways so he didn't end up dieing
Reply:didn't he say the that the ghosts did that? that it had all really taken 1 day
Reply:THE SPIRITS, OF PAST, PRESENT,AND FUTURE!!!
