What is Tower of Terror?
On Tower of Terror, guests are seated aboard a rickety old “freight elevator” that glides through mysterious hotel passageways, past ghostly images of former guests. As the journey progresses, the elevator enters a pitch-black shaft. F
rom here, you could go up, you could go down — the elevator has randomized drop sequences so you’ll never know what will happen! At one point, the doors of your elevator open to reveal Disney’s Hollywood Studios parking lot 13 stories below you! You are eventually returned to a dimly lit rear hallway of the Hotel, where you exit the elevator.
