Copshaholm in historic downtown South Bend is getting into the Christmas spirit.

On Sunday, visitors came out for a special Christmas tour of the Oliver family home, inspired by Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol.

Actors representing three generations of the Oliver family brought the past to life, and they say it is special being able to relive history.

"You get to see them in the actual setting where they lived in this wonderful mansion, and I think it's a whole lot different. It makes it come off the pages more so than if you were just reading it in a book," explains actor Dan Baird.

If you missed Sunday's Christmas Carol tours, you will have another chance to attend on December 7th.
