Pán Scrooge je známy ako lakomec a jeho chamtivosť nepozná hraníc. Dokonca ani na Vianoce sa jeho tvrdé srdce neobmäkčí, len podráždene a s kyslým výrazom na tvári sleduje predvianočný zhon. Nečakaná a tajuplná návšteva, ktorá ho vyľaká, však mnohé zmení. Navštívi ho Marley, jeho dávny obchodný partner, čo by však nebolo nič neobvyklé, keby Marley nebol dávno mŕtvy. A nebude to len duch Marleyho, ale pána Scroogea prídu osobne pozrieť aj ďalšie prízraky. Štedrý deň sa neúprosne blíži a s ním možnosť vykúpenia. Prehodnotí Scrooge svoj doterajší život, alebo sa bude naďalej utápať v pocitoch odporu a nenávisti? Najkrajší príbeh veľkého anglického rozprávača " Vianočná koleda" z roku 1843 aj v súčasnosti dokáže zaujať a osloviť čitateľov po celom svete.
