WADSWORTH, Ohio — For years Rachel and Greg Osterland have decorated their Wadsworth to look just like a famous one— the Griswold’s house from "National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation."

The home has become a must-see for families across Northeast Ohio during the holiday season.

On Friday, the family held the official lighting of the home. Typically, the family hosts a crowd of spectators but this year, because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the event was virtual.

The Osterlands lit their home just before 7 p.m. Watch video from the event in the player below:
