Dickens' Day. How Dickens Wrote A Christmas Carol.

Well, this is not the book I was showcasing this day, but A Christmas Carol is an everybody's favourite. So this Ghost Story could be interesting to anyone.
Charles Dickens A Christmas Carol - How Dickens Wrote This Classic Ghost Story

How Charles Dickens came to write A Christmas Carol. Was he actually contacted by a ghost himself?The power of a simple act of charity he saw made a profound impact on Dickens, who had seen his family put in debtor's prison when he was a young boy. The haunting memories of that time made him feel that making money was the most important thing in life, until a strange encounter with a spirit made him see what was really important in life. Could Dickens have ended up as an unreformed Scrooge himself, if his heart had not been changed by an act of charity?
