You can rent the 'Home Alone' house on Airbnb this month

If you want to find out what it's like to live in Kevin McCallister, you can do just that this month. The original Home Alone is available for a one-night stay through Airbnb. Those interested in staying can request to book this stay starting Tuesday, December 7 at 1 PM CT at this link. The house will be available on December 12. 

The house's availability is a promotion for Airbnb and the latest installment of the Home Alone franchise, Home Sweet Home Alone. Alongside this event, Airbnb plans to make a one-time donation to Chicago's La Rabida Children's Hospital.

The lucky group of people who can snag a booking at the famous Winnetka, Illinois, will even be hosted by Kevin's big brother Buzz (or actor Devin Ratray).


The house features some carefully-curated moments and details from the classic film, which fans of the movie will appreciate. You can set up actual booby traps, eat some '90s junk food, check out Buzz's pet tarantula, and even wear Kevin's green robe. 

As Mashable pointed out, you might need to bring your own aftershave if you want to recreate that iconic scene.
