    Anyone know where I might find the Source Audio for DLP Tower of Terror Shaft creatures?

    I know I have found sources for the source audio from the Tower of Terror in Florida and former DCA parks, and wonder if anyone knows a source for Disneyland Paris? I like to make my own videos and would like to make one for DLP

    My Disney at Home Tower of Terror showing how it works

    Just restarted active work on updates/improvements. Some related to just adding more props related to the Twilight Zone, but probably more significant adding props related to elements of the actual Tower of Terror seen at the ride such as the elevator motor. The prop motor will be animated...

    My Disney at Home Tower of Terror showing how it works

    I have been working on a Tower of Terror Boiler room recreation with a multimedia show for the past 4 yrs. Here is the first video attempting to show/explain the basics of how it works.

    Thanks for the input Rodj; some of the information you provide I was aware and some not.

    Calling all former Tower of Terror castmembers for help

    I am hoping to get some input from former TOT castmembers on the functionality of the various buttons on the elevator control panel; what works, what doesnt, what used to work but has now been automated.

    Has the Tower of Terror elevator ever gotten stuck in the drop shafts?

    OK I guess there would be not much to see if it gets stuck in the shaft towers. When you were stuck, were there ever lights that came on? I guess even if lights came on inside the shaft; you really could not see the shaft because riders are inside the car. Thanks for sharing your experience.

    Has the Tower of Terror elevator ever gotten stuck in the drop shafts?

    I have seen videos of people that were stuck in the WDW Tower of Terror, but I think all the ones I have seen have been in the path going TO the drop towers, and not in the Towers. Anyone aware of people getting stuck temporarily IN the drop shafts?

    An OLED tv could have absolute blacks and appear off, but dont think they make small OLEDs that could fit behind the olf TV fascade.

    Anyone know what is supposed to be in the chain-linked area next to loading area?

    Most of the set and some of the props were made by a set company in vegas, that does alot of work for the various shows. All the programming of the controllers done and most of the other props were done by a professional escape room guy (I absolutely LOVE the elevator control panel replica he...

    Now that I am retired, working on this project is pretty much my full-time job.

    Anyone know what is supposed to be in the chain-linked area next to loading area?

    Thanks that is exactly what I was hoping to find! The Tower Hotel was supposedly built in the early 1900's since it was founded in 1919, so I would assume the elevator equipment would be from 1919 or before. I just looked at the elevator page linked, and it has a Otis catalogue from 1914 which...

    Anyone know what is supposed to be in the chain-linked area next to loading area?

    I have been building a replica of the Tower of Terror Boiler room for 4 yrs in an enclosed patio at my home. The plan is that it will go next to the motorized elevator doors, and intend to make the faux elevator motor have a rotating drive wheel that will move in one direction or the other...

    Anyone know what is supposed to be in the chain-linked area next to loading area?

    So that would be the motor then if it is connected to pulleys, which I would assume would be connected to the elevator as far as for the ride immersion. (I know in reality there are huge motors actually linked to the actual ride vehicles that either lift, or pull the ride vehicles up and down...
