Tower of Terror Drop Tower Dark Ride | BEST Version of Tower of Terror Out There! Walt Disney World

Tower of Terror Drop Tower Dark Ride in Disney's Hollywood Studios at Walt Disney World. Out of all the Disney's Tower of Terror rides around the world, Disney's Hollywood Studios has the best version yet!
Do you agree? If not, which Disney park has the best Tower of Terror? Tokyo DisneySea? Walt Disney Studios Park at Disneyland Paris? or Disneyland in California which is now Guardians of the Galaxy - Mission: BREAKOUT!?
Ride filmed September 2023 in Disney's Hollywood Studios at Walt Disney World, Florida

What made this ride over the top is that it wasn't just a normal drop ride. There was Disney's element of special effects, but the idea to move the entire elevator to another section of the building for the drop was unheard of. When it debuted 30 years ago, it amazed me. I'm glad it's operating to this day.

[@laboy14]

There’s no way this ride debuted 30 years ago? Didn’t it open 18 years ago well the one in Anaheim?

[@EvaneLunestra]

​@laboy14 This is the original Tower of Terror in Florida. Wikipedia says it debuted July 1994. All this time I hadn't been able to try though I did go on the one in Anaheim (which sadly isn't exactly the same but close).

[@BesstProductions]

florida's version came first, and it debuted in 1994. all other variants came out later

[@metallicnole4514]

I don't do drop towers, but I make an exception for this one. ToT is amazing

[@brianj959]

Still one of the all-time greats! I rode it about 20 years ago for the first time and was transported to another dimension of joy.

[@kothpcy]

It's funny how the workers stare down everyone at the door when it's closing to make them even more scared, lol.

[@thefrustratedfilmer316]

Attractions 360, I definitely agree. The one at Disney Hollywood Studios is arguably the best one in the world.

Even though I’m watching this from an iPad, I can still feel the intensity of the ride because I’ve been on it before. What an amazing ride 😻

[@Infectedwithrabies]

I've been on it too but thank goodness I can't feel it because I hated the ride 😭 (I was a child and I hate long and fast drops)

[@IAteYourHotdog]

@@Infectedwithrabiesoof sorry i loved the ride ever since i tried it for the first time when i was 10 i could go on and on about how much i love it❤

[@tb54321]

When my niece was about 6 years old we took her to WDW. She wanted to try this ride and so I went with her. I was so nervous about taking her - afraid I was going to traumatize her. After the first ride, she begged me to go again right away. Luckily there wasn’t a wait at that time. We ended up going about 5 times in a row. It would have been more but I had such a massive headache by my fifth time I just couldn’t take anymore!

[@IAteYourHotdog]

dang i wish i could go that many times i wanted to go again after the first time but it sadly shut down before i could go again

[@ThatsHER927]

I have a love/hate relationship with this ride!!! I’m scared every time I ride but I also love it lol It’s weird!!! One of my favs!

[@LifeOfTheParty-zf5bi]

I rode this ride when I was younger like 5 or 6. And it scared the heck out of me, and I told myself that I’m never riding it ever again. Looking at it in a video now it doesn’t seem too bad.

[@jude2433]

I rode it at the same age back in 2003 and thought the same thing. Turns out it is actually worse hehehe.....

[@mrgroosumthasandman8046]

I road this when i had just turned 13 back in 96, it had only been open for 2 years! I remember everyone talking about How revolutionary it was and still is! Definitely in my top 5 and I'm a coaster nerd! Hope disney doesn't destroy this beautiful Masterpiece and turn it into something else like some rumors I've heard. I highly recommend experiencing this at least once!

[@USMCbratt]

I was one of the first people to ride this when it first opened. We had so much fun. Aww, those were the days!

[@walkthataisle]

I rode this before the opening and therefore was before you in riding it.

[@kingchrisa4188]

So happy I went on this ride on my senior trip for the first time. Definitely worth it

[@marcuscheng2507]

My number one favorite ride in Hollywood Studios!

[@Tyler-rf9tj]

Y'all should definitely ride the Tower of Terror ride in Tokyo DisneySea and see how it compares.

[@pabloblocc]

The story there is definitely better imo, but there’s only 3 drops which make the ride a bit underwhelming. But there is a limited version that runs around January to March every year which makes the ride a lot scarier and thrilling.

[@jessicarechani875]

Nope, never again I will go on that ride. This one terrified me of free falls to this day

[@StevieB93]

I rode this ride once and I can’t do it again. The drops get me all the time 😂😂😂

[@alfamale9555]

Just love everything about TOT, theming, set, ride, effects amazing

[@TayWoode]

Is the drop sequence the same each time? In the Paris version it’s always different so you never know when it’s going to drop completely or stall or go back up. It also doesn’t have the part before entering the fifth dimension but there’s an extra floor that opens in front of a mirror where you all fade out of existence, plus there’s a little girl telling you to follow her and not to scream, and there’s a few different endings

[@beemocha]

I saw this ride on the episode of Family Matters when they went to Disney World❤

[@christianortiz793]

Fantastic memories! 2nd best ride at DHS behind ROTR!

[@clockspur8091]

I’m glad it’s still in WDW- I really want to ride it someday!!

[@RayBcv1030]

I rode this in 2013. Thought it would've been just like the dca tower of Terror. So I was absolutely shocked when I started moving forward. It freaked me out.

[@sabrinaslade345]

@@RayBcv1030 does it move forwards as it drops?

I rode this ride twice it was really fun. The first time my friend got really scared and she wanted to get off. But we convinced her to come will us the second time.

[@JaylaisAwesome]

I rode this with my cousins when I was twelve, the drop was intense!

[@tuggspeedman822]

The only attraction that still makes me nervous in the queue just as when i was a child. Probably one of the best attractions in the world!

[@ThePBSFanboy]

mine was the dragon

[@ThePBSFanboy]

i got over it though.

[@luvvsolana]

i was a little scared to go on this since it was my first time. but i ended up loving it. honestly i feel like the drops are pretty smooth and not as hardcore as i thought it would be.

[@80samandatheretro]

I rode the one the guardians of the galaxy in California and I was freaked out on the ride.

i went on this ride yesterday with my dad 2 times and it was my fav ride from hollywood studios other than the slinky dog one

[@danielandlucycartoonsmadne5885]

I can feel my stomach flip watching this pov

[@MichelleGenderbendM]

I rode this ride once. Of note, between each seat, there's little metal bars meant to separate them visually, and also for you to hold onto. It doesn't do much good to hold onto them though - when you're falling, the elevator is being pulled down fast enough that you simply cannot hold yourself to your seat. Of course, that just means Disney nailed the terror part - even when you know that the ride is functioning safely, it's still terrifying to feel like you aren't in your seat when you have a seat belt holding you down.

[@tmalone2530]

I rode this for the first time in 1997; I was 8 years old. I was terrified out of mind and it had nothing to do with the ride itself, it was Disney’s ambiance and creativity. I was frightened beyond belief.

[@jaqueline9518]

Love this ride ❤

[@josematinez9821]

I remember when i was a kid i got on this ride by myself i was probably 8 years old and the attendant didn’t check belts so i didnt have mine on half the ride, luckily i saw a kid next to me had a seatbelt on so i checked and put mine on i was unaware there was a big drop on the ride. I was terrified after and cried

[@benabner6257]

I miss tower of terror in DCA. That GotG retheme doesn't do it for me.

[@tb54321]

I hate it when they get rid of the classic rides. Sometimes there is an improvement when they update a ride, but some rides are just iconic and should be maintained. I consider tower of terror to be iconic. It’s up there with haunted mansion and splash mountain. And I love that each park has a variation of the ride that is different, so that makes it unique to each park, but I hate when they completely rip it down and re theme it.

[@thecunninlynguist]

@@tb54321 agreed. I feel that same about soaring. It was nice when it was all about CA. Making it the world is so generic.
