You and up to four guests can stay in the master suite (aka Kevin McCallister’s parents bedroom) which hosted that shaving scene, enjoy a cosy candlelit night in with your own large cheese pizza, and microwavable macaroni and cheese.
The whole experience is being hosted by none other than Kevin’s big brother Buzz. Oh, and his pet tarantula.
