NIGHT
The entity "NIGHT" refers to the pivotal evening in Charles Dickens' "A Christmas Carol" during which Ebenezer Scrooge experiences a series of supernatural events that profoundly change his life. On this significant night, Scrooge is first visited by the ghost of his former business partner, Jacob Marley. Marley's Ghost warns Scrooge of the consequences of his miserly ways and foretells the arrival of three spirits. This encounter marks the beginning of Scrooge's transformative journey, as he also witnesses the appearance of other phantoms, emphasizing the gravity of his situation.

Following Marley's visit, Scrooge is subsequently visited by the Ghost of Christmas Past, who takes him on a journey through his own memories. This spirit reveals scenes from Scrooge's earlier life, including moments of innocence, joy, and lost opportunities, helping him reflect on the choices that led to his current state of isolation and bitterness.

Later that same night, Scrooge is visited by the Ghost of Christmas Yet to Come (also known as the Ghost of Christmas Future). This spirit presents Scrooge with haunting visions of what may occur if he does not change his ways, including his own death and the impact of his actions on others. Through these prophetic glimpses, Scrooge is confronted with the potential consequences of his continued selfishness and lack of compassion.

Collectively, "NIGHT" in this context represents the single, transformative evening during which Scrooge is visited by Marley’s Ghost and the three spirits—Past, Present, and Yet to Come. It is a night filled with supernatural encounters and revelations, serving as the catalyst for Scrooge’s eventual redemption. The events of this night are crucial to the narrative, as they guide Scrooge from a life of greed and indifference to one of generosity and empathy.
