Home Alone house set for a true 1990s comeback

The famous 'Home Alone' house in suburban Chicago is about to look just like it did in the movie! After years of modern renovations that left fans feeling nostalgic (and a little upset), the new owner is restoring the house to its original movie magic. Turns out, most of those iconic scenes weren’t even filmed inside the real house, but at a local high school. Still, seeing the house return to its classic look is sparking excitement—and debate—online. Would you want to see it restored, or do you prefer the modern updates? #Entertainment #HomeAlone #Chicago

Home alone : DID YOU KNOW? 1. The movie was inspired by a real family trip. The movie's writer, the venerable John Hughes, was on his way to Europe for the first time with his family and just happened to think, "What if one of the kids were left behind?" As his son James Hughes recounts, he jotted it down, and wrote the first draft of the movie's script in just nine days (!) after he got back home. 2. Snow was not in the film's budget — but then a blizzard happened. The producers really couldn't afford it, but after snow covered the entire set on the second day of shooting, they had no choice but to call in the snow machines for the remainder of the film's production. 3. The "evil furnace" also involved movie magic. In the movie, the furnace's movements — and growls — terrified Kevin. In reality, the scene was created by two crew members with flashlights and fishing lines #HomeAlone #HomeAwayFromHome #MovieFacts #HomeWithAStory #HomeAloneStyle #HomeAloneHouse

😂 Home Alone House 35 Years Later:

I totally get wanting to renovate and bring a space up to date; design is definitely a personal thing. But for me, even looking at it objectively and setting aside any sentimental stuff, the new look just comes across as too modern and kind of sterile. It feels like it's really missing that personality and warmth the old place had. #Movies #RetroVibes #HomeAlone #Nostalgia
