The Haunted Man and the Ghost’s Bargain, A Fancy for Christmas-Time, (better known as The Haunted Man and the Ghost’s Bargain) is a novella by Charles Dickens first published in 1848. It is the fifth and last of Dickens' Christmas novellas. The story is more about the spirit of the holidays than about the holidays themselves, harking back to the first of the series, A Christmas Carol. The tale centers around a Professor Redlaw and those close to him. (Summary from the Wikipedia) (3 hr 43 min)

Reviews
Not for me!

I listened for approximately 15 minutes before deciding this wasn’t for me. If a book hasn’t grabbed me by then, chances are I’m not going to enjoy it.
