Haunted Man and the Ghost's Bargain (version 2)

Charles Dickens

Published in 1848, Charles Dickens' novella, The Haunted Man and the Ghost's Bargain, follows Professor Redlaw, a chemistry teacher burdened by past sorrows. He encounters a ghostly twin who offers him the chance to forget his troubles, but this gift comes with unforeseen consequences that affect those around him. This work is notable as Dickens' final Christmas novella, featuring his characteristic blend of sentimentality and social commentary, alongside memorable supporting characters like the Swidgers and the Tetterby family.
