<P> On leaving the elevator, guests are led through a hotel corridor towards what would appear to be the old "Lost & Found" desk of the hotel; however, it is now where photos taken on the ride may be purchased . Beyond this desk, guests pass a cracked fountain to the left and on the right can be seen the Hollywood Tower Hotel's dining room, previously called The Sunset Room . The menu, placed outside the closed double - doors, is dated October 31, 1939 . Guests then enter the shop which is called Tower Merchandise . The shop, in keeping with the theme of the hotel, has cracked walls and is dimly lit . There, guests may purchase Twilight Zone merchandise and Hollywood Tower Hotel - themed souvenirs, including hotel bathrobes and slippers . </P> <P> On August 13, 2014, the ride's on - ride camera began recording video, so that riders could purchase a photograph or video of their ride . This was the first ride at Walt Disney World to offer on - ride videos . On September 18, 2014, the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train ride at the Magic Kingdom began offering on - ride videos and pictures as well, making these the only two rides at Walt Disney World to offer videos and pictures . </P> <P> In February 2010, Disney announced that the Tower of Terror would receive "new lighting effects and a new addition" as part of a summer entertainment package called "Summer Nightastic!". The Fifth Dimension scene is changed, mostly covered by black tarps with fiber - optic stars, and Serling's voice is removed from just before the drop profile . Replacing it is music played in the drop shaft, along with a projected picture of the riders just before they enter the drop shaft . Similar to the Disney California Adventure and Walt Disney Studios Park versions of the ride, the riders disappear, leaving an empty elevator . A new drop profile was created for "Summer Nightastic!", and replaces the other drop profiles on all rides . The profile mainly consisted of utilizing the entire tower for the drop sequences, as compared to the numerous faux and shortened drops in the randomized version . The changes were implemented on June 5, 2010, but were officially introduced the day after . All changes were temporary, and lasted until August 14, 2010 . </P> <P> While similar in concept and theme to the original attraction in Florida, the attraction at Disney California Adventure, which opened in 2004 and closed in 2017, featured some significant differences . The exterior of Disney California Adventure's tower had architectural features reminiscent of Pueblo Deco styles found throughout Southern California during the Golden Age of Hollywood . </P>
