Move Over Ralphie, Indiana & Kentucky ‘Christmas Story’ Super Fans Can Stay in the Bumpas House
Are You a Fan of A Christmas Story? Here's Your Chance to Live the Movie Magic!
Every year, I’d rewatch A Christmas Story over and over again. TBS used to air it on a 24-hour loop, and I know every line by heart. The iconic film, set in the fictional town of Hohman, Indiana, always brought back warm memories of the holiday season. While the town was fictional, did you know that the house featured in the movie is real—and you can visit it?
Did You Know?
Hohman, Indiana was based on the author, Jean Shepherd's hometown of Hammond, IN.

Imagine spending the night in Ralphie’s house! This is a dream come true for any A Christmas Story fan. The house sleeps up to 10 people, and yes, you can even sleep in Ralphie and Randy’s little twin beds! The best part?

There are two suites to choose from: The Stolen Turkey Suite (because we all know what happened to that turkey!) and Hound Dog Haven, where the Bumpus hounds would’ve roamed. It's the perfect way to extend the A Christmas Story experience.
