Description

In this captivating account, author John Abendshien tells the story of how he and his family resided in what became one of American cinema’s most iconic houses during the filming of the classic Christmas movie Home Alone . John takes you into all the backstories behind the scenes—how the location was chosen, what it was like when a Hollywood production invaded his home, how certain scenes were filmed, and how some of those crazy stunts didn’t always go as planned. Abendshien thought that once filming ended, life would go back to normal, but then the movie exploded into a global phenomenon. Suddenly his home became a magnet for tourists, sightseers, fans—and it never stopped. John describes his personal journey through this experience and how, in the end, the Home Alone home wasn’t just his house anymore—it was everyone’s home. And when you’re part of something this big, you’re never really “home alone.”
