Episode 13: Surveying the Land: Tower of Terror
Tuesday, May 12, 2009 at 4:04PM
The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror. The imagineers did a great job of framing this view with the palm trees lining Sunset Blvd.
This is a closer look at the actual tower. The original shafts are said to have disappeared when they were struck by lightning.
The outdoor queue is shaded by some creepy trees. This was purposefully done as the attraction was built before FastPass and guests might wait 30 minutes to an hour in the outdoor queue.
Once you enter the hotel you can see various props that are arranged purposefully as they represent different episodes from the original Twilight Zone television show.
Outside the attraction on Sunset Blvd you can find this billboard advertisement for the Hollywood Tower Hotel.
Towards the entrance to Disney Hollywood Studios you can see this sign.
The sign above advertises for the Hollywoodland neighborhood in north Los Angeles. The structure below is the actual entrance to the Hollywoodland neighborhood, it was reproduced and is front of the Tower of Terror attraction
On the other side of the street is the other structure that was reproduced and placed in front of the Tower of Terror attraction. If you look closely you can see that in 2003 (when I took the picture) the neighborhood was celebrating its 80th anniversary.
