Jacob Marley was a selfish, lonely, miser that hated Christmas similar to Ebenezer Scrooge. So why would he be willing to come back and help transform Scrooge into the Father Christmas figure he would become?

“As they arrived at Jacob’s former abode, he decided to have a little more enjoyment and stuck his face through the door from inside and placed it directly in the large knocker attached to the front. Marley stared deeply into old Scrooge’s eyes as he fumbled for his keys. Startled, Ebenezer glared back. He had not thought about the looks of his former partner since he passed away, except on those rare occasions someone mistook him for Marley. But now he could see his former partner as he last saw him alive.”

The vintage illustrations used are from John Leech in the original 1843 novella, and Arthur Rackham in the 1915 edition of A Christmas Carol.
