From "Dead to Begin With"
Text reading: “I just don’t know why he must be so stubborn,” Fred grumbled, “Would it really hurt him to come and spend time with the only family he has?” “Indeed, he is almost as stubborn as you,” his wife said with a loving smile, “Every year, you invite your uncle to Christmas dinner. Every year he refuses. And yet come December, there you are again to darken his doorstep with another invitation. And not only on Christmas. Easter dinners, Midsummer dinners. Why, next year, I would not be at all surprised if you attempted to invite him over for a seance on All Hallow’s Eve.”

From "Dead to Begin With."
Text Reading: “Happy to see the mortal years have not dulled your wits, Ebeneezer,” Marley hissed, “It seems we have reached the messy truth of the matter. Yes, old friend, vampires live off the blood of the living, but you and I both know, there are plenty of people in this city that don’t deserve the blood running through their veins. There is plenty to spare. After all, wasn’t it you who said that there is a surplus population?” Scrooge’s stomach twisted itself into a knot at the accusation, and the old miser wasn’t sure for what reason. Those had been his words, and when he had spoken them that afternoon, he had meant each and every one of them. Or, perhaps, he had only thought he meant them, stoked by his indignant anger. It was easy to call for the deaths of faceless others when it was the wheel of unstoppable progress crushing them somewhere he didn’t have to see. But the idea of looking a man in the eye and ripping out his throat himself made Scrooge feel sick in both his stomach and his soul.

From "Dead to Begin With"
Text reading: "There was a pause as the door swung open, its rusty hinges screeching loudly in the otherwise silent night. Then, as that noise faded away, Scrooge heard footsteps enter the room beyond, accompanied by the clear clack of a cane tapping against the wooden floorboard. The pounding of Scrooge’s heart in his own ears was almost deafening, but he still managed to hear the intruder meandering their way around the room before they came to a stop directly on the other side of the door. The floorboards groaned as the intruder shifted their weight and Scrooge could picture the stranger leaning down and placing their ear against the door as well in his mind’s eye. “Ebeneezer Scrooge,” a voice whispered through the keyhole, and Scrooge’s heart leapt into his throat."

Text reading: "As the fog cleared once more, Scrooge found himself standing before the intimately familiar sight of his and Marley’s counting house. The snow upon the ground marked their return to winter, and a pale moon hung in the dark sky above. Very little light could be seen through the dirty windows of the counting house, though the creaking of the floorboards within could be heard outside on the otherwise silent street. “Why are we here, spirit?” Scrooge asked the Ghost of Christmas Past, “I feel visiting a place I was at just this morning will not be fruitful for our search.” “This is your counting house, true,” the Ghost agreed, “But we are here on a very different night.”

Text Reading: “Ebeneezer,” Marley greeted, and Scrooge could hear the smile in the vampire’s voice, “Finally come to your senses?” “I’ve come to end it, Jacob,” Scrooge answered, his voice and spine full of steel. “End it?” Marley repeated with a scornful laugh, “Man kills one vampire and thinks himself some kind of hunter of the undead!”

From "Dead to Begin With."
Text reading: “But I am his partner,” the vampire before him said, “Ebeneezer Scrooge.” The other Scrooge was dressed much how Scrooge would on any day he conducted business, though the front of his suit was horribly marred by splattered blood, which also dribbled off the other Scrooge’s chin. From beneath the shadowed brim of his top hat, the other Scrooge looked at the old miser with eyes that shone like silver coins and his mouth stretched into a bloody, sharp-toothed grin.
