The celebrated P.J. Lynch captures the spirit of Dickens's beloved tale in a richly illustrated unabridged edition.
The story of Ebenezer Scrooge opens on a Christmas Eve as cold as Scrooge's own heart. That night, he receives three ghostly visitors: the terrifying spirits of Christmas Past, Present, and Yet to Come. Each takes him on a heart-stopping journey, yielding glimpses of Tiny Tim and Bob Cratchit, the horrifying spectres of Want and Ignorance, even Scrooge's painfully hopeful younger self. Will Scrooge's heart be opened? Can he reverse the miserable future he is forced to see? Now in an unabridged edition gloriously illustrated by the award-winning P.J. Lynch, this story's message of love and goodwill, mercy and self-redemption resonates as keenly as ever.

What makes the hair on the back of your neck stand up? Is it something sinister-a secret sense warning you that something is wrong, that someone, some thing you can't see, is in the room with you? Is it real? Should you run? Fight? Scream? Find the answers within the musty, dark recesses of these stories. Through the haunted imaginations of Edgar Allan Poe, Jack London, Ambrose Bierce, and nine other great authors, we are transported to places our own imaginations hesitate to take us, and we bear witness to unthinkable events. These stories endure, not merely because of what they are about, but how they are told-and when told by master storytellers, these startling tales send chills up and down our spines. Open the book, if you dare, and enter another world-you'll find that it's worth the risk. This Prestwick House Literary Touchstone Classic includes a glossary and notes to help the modern reader appreciate details that may otherwise be confusing or overlooked.
