The correct answer is Bob Cratchit
So why is this answer correct? : In Charles Dickens’ 1843 novel “A Christmas Carol,” four spirits visit grumpy Ebenezer Scrooge the night before Christmas. First is his former business partner, Jacob Marley, to warn Scrooge of how the night is going to unfold. Then, the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Yet to Come visit in an effort to help Scrooge understand the true meaning of the holiday and make him a kinder man. “A Christmas Carol” has seen different iterations on the big screen, including a 2009 version starring Jim Carrey as Scrooge.
