If you walk by the Christmas Story House, you'll be stopped in your tracks, not by the famous leg lamp, but by a real life-size pink nightmare.

A giant, 20 foot Ralphie dressed in pink bunny suit pajamas given to him by his Aunt Clara occupies the yard space adjacent to the house.

A recap of the famous scene in the movie shows Ralphie dressed in a pink bunny suit walking down the stairs with shame covering his face. His mom thinks he looks adorable, while his father tells him the brutal truth.

The Christmas Story House blew up the life-size inflatable on Thursday, which will welcome runners at the end of the 10K finish line at The Christmas Story Run on Saturday.

The inflatable bunny suit was made by Inflatable Images in Brunswick.

Visit the Christmas Story House and the bunny at 3159 West 11th St, Cleveland.
