Why is the Ghost of Christmas Present a stranger to Scrooge?

He does. The Ghost of Christmas Present is showing him the visions of what Christmas now and across the 12 days of Christmas looks like. This is what Scrooge is missing in his life as the ghost states on their first meeting in the room. "Come in man and know me well" followed by "You do not recognise me do you or any of my brothers". Meaning that Scrooge did not see or live Christmas.


Why does the ghost of Christmas Present grow older before Scrooge's eyes?

Although it is never stated implicitly in the story, we are led to believe that the Ghost of Christmas Present is but the latest of those who rise on Christmas Day every year, and live but the one day. Hence the Spirit's aging is particularly noticeable, especially as the day winds down towards midnight. This, the Spirit declares, is when he leaves the earth. He has already told Scrooge that he has over 1800 brothers who have gone before him, which makes sense considering that the story takes place towards the mid-1800's.

When was A Christmas Carol set?

While it was written and published in 1843, and the narrative travels through several time periods, I've always thought that the story's "present" was set in the mid-1820s. Evidence includes Marley's pigtails and waistcoat from an earlier era, several older words and spelling conventions, the wintry weather (the winter of 1843 was unusually warm), the descriptions of several places in the story that seem to place them in an earlier time, and the narrator's knowledge of Tiny Tim's and Scrooge's future. The Ghost of Christmas Present indicates he has over 1800 brothers, so the earliest would be 1802.
