Considering that the holiday commemorates the miracle of oil burning for eight days when was only supposed to burn for one (more enlightened individuals can explain the story better than I), I would say that it ends eight days after today (which would be Wednesday, 12/12).

Olive oil? Seriously? I didn't know that part, cool (about the new oil being able to be made in that time and all that)

The legend of the miracle oil is a later addition to the story, but it's actually the miracle of a small band of Jews defeating the most powerful and technologically advanced army of its time that's the real miracle. (and that is a historical fact.)
