Have you seen what’s happened to these abandoned movie sets?
Movie buffs travel across the world to visit the places where their favorite films were shot – but not every set has a happy ending.
One of the most famous, which has become a popular tourist attraction, is Hobbiton in New Zealand.
The location, which featured in the Lord of the Rings films as the home of Bilbo Baggins, draws in legions of visitors every year.
However, other abandoned sets have received little to no attention since film crews departed.
