Head to this tiny village in India for a spine-tingling trip. The horror-comedy Stree was shot in the village named Chanderi in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh and based on an urban legend, where a woman’s spirit haunts the area looking to abduct single men during festivals. Head over to this grand old fort for regal photos – just make sure no one is looking over your shoulder. Image Credit: Courtesy of https://ashoknagar.nic.in

It’s one of those classic montages where you can really picture yourself at the scene, part of the adventure. As ‘Eye of the Tiger’ plays, Rocky Balboa, aka Sylvester Stallone, runs up the steps of the Philly art museum. By the end of his run to the top of the steep steps he’s convinced you to root for his success. The movie obviously clicked with audiences, because the fictional story of the man trying to be a boxing champ has seven sequels and a spin off. To recreate the magic of this iconic shot, carry a little towel with you. Image Credit: Twitter
