- The movie is based on a short story. Like the 1983 original, Christmas Vacation is based on a short story, “Christmas ’59,” written by John Hughes for National Lampoon in December 1980.
- Clark Griswold grew up in Samantha Stevens’s house. If Clark’s childhood home featured in those old movies looks familiar, that’s because it’s the same house featured on Bewitched, as well as The New Gidget.
- John Hughes wasn’t a fan of sequels. Though many of Hughes’s films have spawned sequels, the man himself was not a fan of retreads. He was credited as a writer on European Vacation, and claimed that was only because he had created the characters.
- It’s one of only two Christmas movies released in 1989. Though the holiday season is usually packed with Christmas-themed movies, Christmas Vacation was one of only two that were released in 1989.
