Jacob Marley Ghost

The Ghost of Jacob Marley


"The same face: the very same. Marley in his pigtail,
usual waistcoat, tights and boots; the tassels on
the latter bristling, like his pigtail, and his coat-skirts,
and the hair upon his head. The chain he drew was
clasped about his middle. It was long, and wound
about him like a tail; and it was made (for Scrooge
observed it closely) of cash-boxes, keys, padlocks,
ledgers, deeds, and heavy purses wrought in steel.
His body was transparent; so that Scrooge, observing
him, and looking through his waistcoat, could see
the two buttons on his coat behind.
 
Scrooge had often heard it said that Marley had no
bowels, but he had never believed it until now."

   - A Christmas Carol, Stave 1: Marley's Ghost

 
  • In this production only Scrooge can see Marley's Ghost; the ghost is invisible to the movie audience
