Walt Disney World® Hollywood Studios

Effective January 2008, this Park will be renamed Disney’s Hollywood Studios™.

The new name reflects how the park has grown from representing the golden age of movies to a celebration of the new entertainment that today’s Hollywood has to offer – in music, television, movies and theater. It's a curtain up on the launch of new attractions, new looks and new breakthrough experiences.

It’s your backstage pass to the place “where showbiz is” and entertainment comes to life. Guests take center stage as the star of their own adventure: from rock ‘n’ roll fantasy to Broadway-style stage spectaculars, from the silver screen to the TV screen to behind the scenes. Now that’s entertainment!

The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Brave the creepy facade of a once-glorious hotel for a jolt back in time. Board a phantom elevator, shoot up 13 stories and brace yourself for a thrilling plummet... but beware! The experience just got scarier. You rocket back up, only to plummet down yet again. You dare to ride once more, but wait! That's not what happened before. That's right, now the Tower is in control, so it's never the same fear twice!
