**This version does not have movie footage**

This year in celebration of the 20th anniversary of National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation, A Christmas Story House in Cleveland, OH decided to pay their own tribute to this christmas classic. For 3 days crews from Holiday Lights of Cleveland worked around the clock to cover as much of the house as possible with upwards of 9,000 twinkle lights.

In the end they didn't end up with the 25,000 lights Chevy Chase had in the movie, but it still makes for a great tribute and a fun night out for the holidays.
