Why Would Charles Dickens Write a Ghost Story for Christmas?
We've seen so many re-tellings of A Christmas Carol
that we don't even think about it as a ghost story
​
​
And what about this line in the song “The Most Wonderful Time of the Year” by Andy Williams:
There'll be scary ghost stories
and tales of the glories
of Christmases long, long ago
​
It was already a long-standing tradition to tell ghost stories at Christmas,
but it was especially popular during the Victorian Era
after Dickens published his "little Christmas Ghost story"
Christmas is about the birth of the Savior
A ghost is the spirit or soul of a person who has died
Ghost stories are a reminder that we continue to exist after death, and that what we do in this life affects where we go when we die.
​
I'll show you how Dickens emphasizes that, along with
references to:
​
The Bible
Good Friday
Images of Christ
Virtues
​
in this
​
