Ghost of Christmas yet to come

• Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come

  • Personification of death - it resembles the Grim Reaper who comes to collect the souls of the dead and takes them to the afterlife
• "Through the very air through which the spirit moved, it seemed to scatter gloom and mystery"


  • 'Gloom' conveys melancholy
  • 'Mystery' convey as something beyond human comprehension
  • Imagery and atmosphere is in sharp contrast to the light and cheer from the two previous spirits
