The ghostly figures under the ghost's robe represent the souls of people trapped in purgatory. They serve as a warning to Scrooge of what his fate could be if he does not change his ways.
Humbug
He calls the ghostly signs humbug because he initially believes they are just a product of his own imagination or a result of something he ate. Scrooge is skeptical and dismissive of anything supernatural or out of the ordinary.
Merely explains that without their council Scrooge may expect the same fate as he was suffering - everlasting torment.
A christmas carol
Scrooge told the two visitors that he was too busy to engage with them and that he did not believe in their supernatural nature. He dismissed them rudely and did not want to listen to what they had to say.
In the beginning of the book "A Christmas Carol" by Charles Dickens, Ebenezer Scrooge is deceived by his former business partner, Jacob Marley. Scrooge believes that Marley's ghostly appearance might be a result of his own indigestion or lack of sleep. He dismisses the supernatural encounter, attributing it to a figment of his imagination or a piece of "undigested beef."
