The electric box at Tower of Terror Secret

I don't know if its still there but check out the display board right inside the lobby. You know those "boards" (you press in the letters/numbers) that annouce which party is in a specific room, banquet hall, or event. It's before you enter the library room.

If you look at the bottom there is (was) a message spelled out. We noticed this during our 1997 trip -- not sure if something has changed.

They removed this a while back. It said "you are doomed".
 
:rolleyes1 I might try it this weekend or next week (don't tell NC Beast).
 
I didn't find the box. I asked a CM about it, and she indicated that it would shut down the attraction. I seriously doubt the information she gave me. Why would they put a box within guest reach that would shut the whole thing down.

But I happened to meet TJ, who's the "face of the Tower of Terror". He's the person you see in the Travel Channel Videos. I asked him about the box. He said it's on the other side of the wall, but it's very noisy and may disturb the people in the library. He didn't indicate, however, where it was located.

In case you don't know who TJ is, here's a picture I took of him and my traveling companion, Susie.

Did he start at the Haunted Mansion at the MK??? I seem to remember the cross-eyed grin.
 

I don't know if he started at the Haunted Mansion. He's been with Disney for 24 years, and was on the opening crew of the Tower of Terror. So he's been with the Tower of Terror since July 22, 1994.

We got to meet him when we asked to see the control room for the Tower. We had asked before, but they were having a meeting in the control room. This time they let us in. We were thrilled to meet TJ, since we had seen him on the Travel Channel.
