what unusual event happens when scrooge gets to his front door
When Scrooge arrives at his front door, the doorknocker momentarily changes into the face of his late partner, Jacob Marley.
And then let any man explain to me, if he can, how it happened that Scrooge, having his key in the lock of the door, saw in the knocker, without its undergoing any intermediate process of change -- not a knocker, but Marley's face.
