"You unlock this door with the key of imagination. Beyond it is another dimension; a dimension of sound, a dimension of sight, a dimension of mind. You're moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You've just crossed over into...the Twilight Zone."
-Rod Serling, Season 4 opening of The Twilight Zone.
"Hollywood, 1939. Amid the glitz and the glitter of a bustling young movie town at the height of its golden age, the Hollywood Tower Hotel was a star in its own right; a beacon for the show business elite. Now, something is about to happen that will change all that. The time is now on an evening very much like the one we have just witnessed. Tonight's story on The Twilight Zone is somewhat unique and calls for a different kind of introduction. This as you may recognize is a maintenance service elevator still in operation, waiting for you. We invite you if you dare to step aboard because in tonight's episode you are the star and this elevator travels directly to...the Twilight Zone."
-Rod Serling in the orientation pre-show.
"You are the passengers on a most uncommon elevator about to ascend into your very own episode of The Twilight Zone. One stormy night long ago, five people stepped through the door of an elevator and into a nightmare. That door is opening once again, and this time it's opening for you."
-Rod Serling in the Disney's Hollywood Studios ride narration.
"You are the passengers on a most uncommon elevator about to take the strangest journey of your lives. Your destination: unknown, but this much is clear; a reservation has been made in your name...for an extended stay. Wave goodbye to the real world...for you have just entered the Twilight Zone. What happened here to dim the lights of Hollywood's brightest showplace is about to unfold once again."
-Rod Serling in the Disney California Adventure ride narration.
"A warm welcome back to those of you who made it, and a friendly word of warning, something you won't find in any guidebook. The next time you check into a deserted hotel on the dark side of Hollywood, make sure you know just what kind of vacancy you're filling. Or you may find yourself a permanent resident... of the Twilight Zone."
-Rod Serling at the end of the ride.
"It's easy enough to be pleasant, when life hums along like a song; But the man worth while is the man who smile when everything goes dead wrong"
-"The Man Worth While" by Ella Wheeler Wilcox.
