Abandoned theme parks

From a Kansas tornado to German cops, photographer Seph Lawless has faced more than few scrapes while capturing his favorite subject: decrepit amusements around the world. He's even been banned from Disney World.

His book, "Abandoned: Hauntingly Beautiful Deserted Theme Parks," documents bygone attractions in a state of almost unsettling decay. CNET obtained these images, some of which are not in the book and have never been published before.

Here's a photo of the shuttered fun house at Bushkill Park near Philadelphia.

The park was closed in late 2006. But volunteers have been working to bring new life to the nearly 118-year-old park.
