Light "bleeding" through meshes

I'm trying to make a hybrid map with indoor/outdoor areas. The issue I'm having is the sunlight is bleeding through the mesh, illuminating the entire room.

Here's an image showing what I mean: https://www.dropbox.com/s/3zdvyjer9ayeq6h/steamtours_WSOWVPd6VA.png?dl=0

How do you resolve something like this?

Real-time shadows won't get blocked by backfaces, so you need a surface on the outside of the tunnel to block them. Either a normal visible mesh, or an invisible one using the toolsblocklight material.

Alrighty, I'll do that. Thanks!
