Our thoughts on Tower of Terror:

This continues to be a ride favorite. We rode this on our recent trip to Disney in December 2022. We were spotting all the details from our research. Shout out to the greatest cast member at Tower of Terror, TJ, whose elevator we had the pleasure of falling on.

Music from this episode was created by Sclolex. Additional music by koryc. Both can be found on Freesound.org. All Disney property belongs to Disney. We are merely appreciative fans.
