This is a Disney adaptation of A Christmas Carol. No, Scrooge wasn't dreaming, at least not about the Jacob Marley's ghost. Jacob Marley's spirit started appearing before he even got in his house. (His front doorknob turned into Jacob's head). Jacob interviened for his old friend to give him a chance to avoid the fate he'd made for himself. One could argue Jacob only intended to scare him and the three other spirits were products of Scrooge's deams. Anyway, The Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future, whether dreams or real, remind Scrooge of the good loving person he was when he was young, and show him the consequences of his greedy actions. This intervention causes Scrooge to change his ways.
