It is time for A Christmas Story!

The house in Cleveland used in the classic holiday film has been restored to its original movie look.

Actors from the movie were at the grand opening yesterday.

A man named Brian Jones bought the house last year and transformed it into a tourist attraction for fellow fans of the movie.

The story is about a boy named Ralphie and his mission to receive a Red Ryder BB gun.

While it was shot in Cleveland, the film is based on author Jean Shepherd's stories of his upbringing in Hammond, Indiana.
