A Christmas Carol: The Haunted Service. A new hour-long musical adaptation based on the book by Charles Dickens.


AGE GUIDANCE: Please note this episode is a bit spooky in places, so is aimed at older children (5+) and adults. For a festive story for younger children, check out The Ballad of Rudy which will also be released around the same time.


Join us for a Christmas Carol service with a difference. It’s midnight on Christmas Eve, a time where the Ghosts and Ghouls of Christmas come out to play. A haunted choir tell the story of Ebenezer Scrooge. We visit the past, present & future to see if three ghosts can change Scrooge’s ways.
