To understand why some of the structures in the world were left half-done, the series called Abandoned Engineering sets out with its cast and crew to bring us answers. The crew finds eerie locations and we get a dive into its history and what caused the project to be abandoned after all.
The series has been airing its episodes since 2017 and it is back yet again with a brand new season which is going to be as grand and global as it can get. The new season plans on taking us all the way from Italy to the center of South Korea in search of abandoned locations that were left to rust.
Fans of the show absolutely love the mildly creepy vibe of the show and the way the crew presents the science behind these lost projects. You’ll find through the show empty buildings and structures that once seemed to store all the life in them. What was once surrounded by people now stands completely alone and without much purpose.
The series is interesting not only because we get a glimpse into the history of these structures but also because we’re told what the structure could have been had its construction been completed at the time.
Not just this but the experts on the show tell us all about the social and ecological impact of these iron and steel structures being covered in moss and dust while standing tall still. To present us with these mysteries and provide answers to all our questions the producers of the show have built an expert crew, one that has stayed true to the show since its start.
With the release of the new season of the show, fans have excitedly tuned in to catch all of its episodes. Before you go and do the same, read below all that we know about the presenters who have stayed with the show, Abandoned Engineering since its start.
