Drop into The Twilight Zone

Hold on tight for a thrilling journey into another realm.Return to a Legendary Landmark
Explore the notorious Hollywood Tower Hotel, the onetime haunt of Tinseltown’s rich and famous—until a mysterious event forced it to close on Halloween in 1939. Edge past the wrought-iron gates of the abandoned abode and wind your way through a neglected, weed-filled garden before stepping inside a dilapidated lobby, seemingly frozen in time.

Make your way into a cozy library and behold curious artifacts from around the globe. As lightning ignites the darkened room, a nearby television set springs to life and Rod Serling welcomes you on a journey into the Twilight Zone.

From a secret passage, trudge into the shadowy confines of a dilapidated boiler room, where your vessel into the 5th dimension awaits. Enter the dusty service lift and strap yourself in, light bulbs flickering on and off above you.

Going Up?
Seated in the lift, launch upward though the hotel in darkness as the voice of Rod Serling echoes all around you. Suddenly, the corroded doors spring open to reveal a lengthy hallway inhabited by the otherworldly hotel inhabitants from 1939 beckoning for you to join them. But your skyward journey has just begun.

Going Down!
Squeal in terror as you “freefall” down the abandoned shaft then unexpectedly change direction and hurtle back upward. Gaze out through a missing wall 13 stories high as the doors inexplicably open and close to reveal the hotel grounds. As if possessed by some unseen phantom, the lift plummets down and speeds upward over and over again, the sound of cables snapping and metal clanging overhead.

Will you make it back to the real world… or will you become a permanent resident of the Twilight Zone?
