First published in 1848, The Haunted Man and the Ghost's Bargain stands as one of Charles Dickens’s celebrated series of Christmas stories. The central character of the story is Mr. Redlaw, a melancholy man who is burdened by painful memories of the past. One winter evening, a mysterious stranger appears, offering Mr. Redlaw a strange bargain: he can be rid of all his painful memories, but at a cost. As the story unfolds, the effects of the ghost’s bargain ripple through the village and beyond.
