I bought of videotape of the remake of "The Haunting" SPECIFICALLY so I
could drool over the sets. The remake totally ruined the story (see the
original movie with Julie Harris), but the sets they used for Hill House
in the Liam Neeson remake were incredible. At first I thought they were
mostly computer-generated, but they had a behind-the-scenes at the end
of the tape that showed them designing and building the interiors.

Oddly enough, most of the rooms at Hogwarts seem to be just plain old
rooms, with one or two spectacular exceptions. But I'd love to see how the
set designer (Eugenio Zanetti) would bring Hogwarts to life in the film.
