The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror Disneyland Resort TV Commercial (2005)

The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror, also known as Tower of Terror in Tokyo and The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror: A New Dimension of Chills in Paris, is an accelerated drop tower dark ride located at Disney's Hollywood Studios, Tokyo DisneySea, Walt Disney Studios Park, and formerly located at Disney California Adventure. The attraction is inspired by Rod Serling's anthology television series, The Twilight Zone, and takes place in the fictional Hollywood Tower Hotel in Hollywood, California. The Tokyo version, which features an original storyline not related to The Twilight Zone, takes place in the fictional Hotel Hightower. All three versions place riders in a seemingly ordinary hotel elevator, and present the riders with a fictional backstory in which people have mysteriously disappeared from the elevator under the influence of some supernatural element many years previously.
The original version of the attraction opened at Disney's Hollywood Studios at Walt Disney World in July 1994, and was the basis of the 1997 television film of the same name, several scenes of which were shot at the attraction. A decade later, Disney began plans to add similar versions of the attraction to their newest parks at the Disneyland Resort in California, Tokyo Disney Resort in Japan, and Disneyland Paris. In California and Paris, Disney sought to use the popular attraction to boost attendance at the respective resorts' struggling new theme parks. The California and Tokyo versions of Tower of Terror opened in 2004 and 2006, respectively, while financial problems delayed the opening of the Paris version until 2007. The California version closed in January 2017.
The Tower of Terror buildings are among the tallest structures found at their respective Disney resorts. At 199 feet (60.7 m), the Florida version is the second tallest attraction at the Walt Disney World Resort, with only Expedition Everest being taller by 0.5 feet (0.2 m) at 199.5 feet (60.8 m). At the Disneyland Resort, the 199-foot (60.7 m) structure (which now houses Guardians of the Galaxy - Mission: Breakout!) is the tallest building at the resort, as well as one of the tallest buildings in Anaheim.] At Disneyland Paris, it is the second tallest attraction.
While similar in concept and theme to the original attraction in Florida, the version of Tower of Terror at Disney California Adventure, which opened in 2004 and closed in 2017, and its identical clone at Walt Disney Studios Park which opened in 2007, feature some significant differences. The exterior of these rides use architectural features reminiscent of Pueblo Deco styles found throughout Southern California during the Golden Age of Hollywood.
The designs for this version were originally designed for the Paris park. However, when California Adventure was in need of an additional crowd-puller, the Paris version's plans were used for its version. When financial troubles hit Disney's Parisian resort, the attraction had to be put on hold.
The Paris version of the ride was finally green-lit in 2005 and was under construction in the center of the park, behind the La Terrasse seating area, by early 2006. Upon completion, it was joined by a new Hollywood Boulevard lined by faux movie sets. Unlike its American cousins, the Paris Tower was constructed using concrete rather than steel due to French construction guidelines and standards, at a total cost exceeding €180 million. The Paris version opened in 2007.
The Paris and California versions were originally intended to be almost identical upon completion, but there are differences, notably the height of the building and the location of some rooms backstage, as well as other differences due to different construction and work regulations in France.

Love that scream at 0:15. I remember watching this commercial when I was young and to this day it still gives me goosebumps every time because of that scream.

[@WitchKing-Of-Angmar]

This commercial alone embodied Halloween better than any horror flick ever could. Can we make halloween about Autumn and the terrors of the ghostly, unnatural realms, which products like The Haunted Mansion, Tower of Terror, abd Luigis Mansion 1-2-3 perfectly encapsulate. I'm so tired of the gory slasher flick being the number one halloween thing and it never once transpires the thought of October into my mind, but this! well this, immediately puts me in the right mood for Halloween.

I went to this ride in 2015 during my grad nite. Glad I got to experience it while I had the chance. I'm sure Guardians of the Galaxy is fine but this ride seemed like a classic.

I genuinely thought you go into an actual elevator when I first heard about the ride and it doesn’t drop until it reaches the top and the level is pulled.

There is another commercial where a family checks in to the hotel and he's saying they don't have a pool, restaurant, color TV, room service, or chocolate pillow mints. But they do have a wake-up call.

[@AtariTheAnimator]

The reason is because the Tower of Terror fit the theme of California, while still being a great attraction. It’s a haunted Hollywood hotel instead of an alien tower.

[@jamesosborn9055]

Did someone just get killed and what does it mean when he said something just opened up?

[@metallicak5]

It means a guest at the hotel was just killed in the elevator and now that room is available.

Acuity Not Anymore. Because Disney just lost ownership to the MCU over a Lawsuit. So it's possible that I'll revert back to the Tower of Terror theme Again.
