Description

One of the most beloved christmas stories of all time, charles dickens' classic novel, "A christmas Carol" has inspired countless retellings of the story of the miserly Ebeneezer Scrooge. Scrooge, a wealthy employer with some serious christmas baggage in the form of emotional scarring (in the fine tradition of many a Dickensian anti-hero), is visited by three christmas spirits who urge him to change his ways and embrace his fellow man.

From the stage to the silver screen, "A christmas Carol" is a holiday tradition, whether you prefer the giddy, frantic Scrooge of the black-and-white Alastair Sim version, Albert Finney's musical interpretation, or George C. Scott's gruff yet emotional Scrooge, you can convey whatever seasonal sentiment you like with a Scrooge costume.

Perfect theatrical productions of the holiday play, the Scrooge costume features an old-fashioned, floor-length white nightshirt and matching stocking cap. Add your own accessories, such as a long, grey wig (ruffled a bit, because even rich guys get bad "bed head." Look at Donald Trump!) and a pair of spectacles. Add to the eerie ambiance of the spooked Scrooge and carry a lit candle or electrical candle in an elaborate victorian holder.
