It's official! Entertainment Tonight has announced TWO NEW Hallmark Movies & Mysteries Christmas Movies for the 2018 Holiday Season!

The first movie revealed was "House on Honeysuckle Lane," a project for Alicia Witt (The Mistletoe Inn, Christmas List)! (I always personally find Alicia's movies a joy to watch, as she is rather quirky & fun and full of energy, spunk, & personality!)

This movie is based on the book, House on Honeysuckle Lane by actress and writer, Mary Elizabeth McDonough. (That's Erin from the beloved television family series, The Waltons!)

Here's a description of the story, via ET: "In House on Honeysuckle Lane, Emma (Witt) returns home to celebrate Christmas for the last time with her siblings in the house they grew up in. After their parents' recent passing, the siblings reluctantly agree to sell the family home on Honeysuckle Lane, leaving Emma in charge of their belongings. While Emma’s mother’s collection is being appraised, they find a hidden surprise that takes them on a journey to discover the power of love and family during the holidays."

The House on Honeysuckle Lane

by Mary McDonough

The second Hallmark Movies & Mysteries Christmas movie ET revealed was... "Return to Christmas Creek," starring Tori Anderson, Steven Weber, Kari Matchett and Stephen Huszar.

Here's a description of the story, via ET: "After being rejected and told that the new idea for her holiday app lacked the spirit of Christmas, young dot com CEO Amelia (Anderson) decides to return home to her Family Inn she grew up at in Christmas Creek. She is just in time for the anniversary of the Fly By Santa event that her family arranges. Her uncle (Weber) is a charter pilot who flies over the town dressed as Santa each Christmas Eve to deliver presents to under-served children in neighboring communities. Amelia was his co-pilot until her family moved away after her father and uncle had a quarrel that split the family apart. Years later, Amelia agrees to revisit the Family Inn where she heals old wounds and reconnects with the family, life and love she left behind in this festive holiday town."


These both sound like two wonderful films to add to our increasing Christmas movie lists! It's wonderful to finally see these are both official and share these details with all of you!

Alicia's movie "House on Honeysuckle Lane" sounds deeper and more emotional than the movies we are used to seeing from her. If the storyline above is any indication, tissues may be required for this one!

I love that Steven Weber (from the TV series "Wings") is playing a charter pilot in his Christmas movie, "Return to Christmas Creek." That is so apropos and suitable for him since he also portrayed a pilot on his popular 90's sitcom!

So much to look forward to!

Blessings on your day, Net
