The Making of the Tower of Terror

Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we discuss anything and everything Disney. This week in Disney News, Shanghai announced the date they’ll be opening Zootopia land. Sticking with international parks, over in Tokyo Disneyland, Fantasy Springs will be opening on June 6, 2024. On the high seas, we got some of our first looks at the artwork for the Haunted Mansion Parlor on the Disney Treasure cruise ship, and it looks incredible. And some people got a scare with the announcement of the return of the Disney Enchantment fireworks show at after hours events next year. Tomorrow is Halloween, so today we wanted to discuss our favorite ride in Disney World that takes place on Halloween Day, 1939. If you didn’t guess it, we’re talking about the Hollywood Studios icon: Tower of Terror. This seemingly immortal ride hasn’t always been there, so we explain the history, fun facts, and nods to the Twilight Zone throughout the queue. Plus, there were several iterations before the original was built including a murder mystery, which Angela thinks would be fun, but the night-vision goggles might become hazardous during the drops. Check out the book A Magical Half-Century for even more on the Tower of Terror. Submit a question/topic for us to discuss on a future episode.
