A Christmas Story: Christmas Story House
built 178 days ago
A Christmas Story House was purchased by movie fan, Brian Jones in 2005. Mr. Jones won the house in an eBay auction and quickly restored the house to its "original" 1983 condition.

Other local businesses have taken advantage of Jones' acumen and created promotions linked to the "Christmas Story House," its official name. C&Y Chinese Restaurant, located on Cleveland's East Side, now serves Peking Roast Duck (a.k.a. "Chinese Turkey") – with waiters removing the head with a cleaver tableside, just as they did at the family's on-screen Christmas dinner – and offers a discount to diners who present their ticket stubs from the house tour. Their weekend business has doubled to more than 1000 patrons per day as a result. The Renaissance Cleveland Hotel offers a package deal for two that includes overnight accommodations and tickets to the House. As a bonus, the film is aired in the room 24 hours a day.

Did you know that the original Christmas Story House has been restored to its state as in the movie? The house is open year round for tours to the general public. Across the street from the house is the Official Christmas Story House Museum which offers gifts and collectors items including original props, movie photos and more.
