Filmed in Cleveland in 1983, we’ve all seen and cherish the family holiday classic movie A Christmas Story! With unforgettable characters like Ralphie & Flick, not to mention the Leg Lamp and Red Ryder BB Gun! For millions of people, it’s their all-time-favorite holiday movie that has both a national & international fan base! It also featured a local Cleveland Ohio house where "Ralphie" and the Parker family lived that has since become a treasured holiday landmark for countless millions of fans throughout the world! With over $350,000 invested to restore it to its movie glory, that same house used in the movie, is now open for tours while the house directly across the street and also shown in the movie, is the Official Movie Museum and Gift Shop.
