The Ghost of Christmas Present visits Ebenezer Scrooge in The Muppet Christmas Carol. A large, jovial figure, the Ghost of Christmas Present reveals to Scrooge the joys of Christmas in the present day.
The Ghost possesses the ability to alter his size to fit into any space, and to enter a room by merely touching its exterior walls. Christmas Present is easily the most personable of the three ghosts, laughing heartily, displaying a tendency towards forgetfulness, and repeating his favorite phrase "know me better, man!" The Ghost visibly ages in his final moments before vanishing.
His "Ho, ho, ho!" is very similar to that of Santa Claus.
