What happens to the Ghost of Christmas Yet To Come in A Christmas Carol?

The Ghost of Christmas Yet To Come shows Scrooge his future if he does not change his greedy and selfish ways.  After seeing all that will happen in the future, Scrooge begs the Spirit to give him another chance.  He promises that he will be a changed man if the Spirit lets him live longer.  Scrooge grabs the hand of the Spirit.  The Spirit pulls the hand away from him.  Scrooge then clasps his hands together to beg for mercy from The Ghost of Christmas Yet To Come one last time.  Before his eyes, the Spirit's clothing transforms to become Scrooge's own bedclothes.  He then realizes that the Spirit has vanished and that he is now back in his own bed in his own house.
