So here is the newest update to my nearly 2 1/2 yr project to recreate the Disney Twilight Zone Tower of Terror Basement Boiler room along with a custom automated show incorporating a rain simulating system, lightning, mini-pyrotechnics effects, bursting steam pipe, custom Rod Serling Deepfake, and many props honoring Rod Serling and his iconic Twilight Zone TV series. I am not complete with this project and am planning to recreate the Tower of Terror Library even more accurately than the Boiler room. Planning a grand opening this Halloween 2022 for both contributing technicians, prop construction companies, prop makers and technicians who contributed to the project as well as inviting random trick or treaters and subscribers to my Youtube channel.

For those who are seeing this project for the first time, this is located as the ante room to my home theater which is located behind the elevator doors where Rod Serling resides, LOL.

wow this is amazing! I cant imagine how much testing this would have required to get everything to work correctly in sequence. How did you implement the rain simulation? Is it like a curtain of water that sprays along the windows/doors (like do people outside get wet?). Do your neighbors think there is a sudden thunderstorm that's come through haha

Watched along with you as you created this and the various individual effects. The current product is stunning. Disney level. Well done.

We havent even seen the actual theatre yet and its already home theatre of the year. This is simply incredible.

Thanks for the compliments. The rain simulation was done by running piping from the 1" main in the garage through the soffits of the room and then running it out to the exterior of the house outside of each set of patio doors which supply approximate 10 foot long "rain bars," with sprinkler outputs spaced about every 6" for the effect of rain on and near the patio doors, as well as a single 15 foot range 180 degree spray pattern long range sprinkler to ensure when the lightning strobes flash, the entire patio appear wet as opposed to just the area next to the patio doors, as a detail to ensure immersive realism; something Disney does so well.

I am fortunate I live on the literal edge of the city with no neighbors to the rear, and only one neighbor on one side. He is cool, and one of the first people to view the project , and when I have given him a heads up of a show night, he says "enjoy yourself."

Very cool, where did you get your Mystic Seer? I don't have a good pic right now but here's mine that my brother made.

I got my Mystic Seer on Ebay. It is one made by Biff Bang Pow which is functional and dispenses answers which is cool.
