Hollywood, 1939


In 1939 the Hollywood Tower Hotel was a star in its own right. Today, it has recaptured some of its stardom, only in a wholly new light. As details go, the story presented in the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror’s queue and exit is only comparable to two or three other attractions (MuppetVision, Expedition Everest, and Toy Story Midway Mania all come to mind immediately).

The showbiz elite that had come flocking to the Hollywood Tower Hotel for Halloween in 1939 could have taken in the talents of Anthony Fremont at the Tip Top Club. For the less social socialites, the Sunset Room offered a dining affair that would make even the most hardcore foodie salivate. The menu is presented below.
