The props tucked inside the shadowed corners of the Tower of Terror library have an ominous meaning most people miss.
Drop in with us on this episode of Distory with Kate & Kirk as we check into the Hollywood Tower Hotel to decipher the history, secrets, and stories hidden within the design. In this episode, we focus on identifying the artifacts found in the second half of the Foxtrot library pre-show room, exploring the details and artifacts along the way. As we make our way around the room, we discuss the meaning of tapestry patterns, explore Greek pottery, and hypothesize why some props were added based on historical context. Kate accidentally shows some inappropriate instruments, Kirk schools us on birds of the world, and we breathe a collective sigh of relief as we (finally!) step out of the library into the entrance to the Boiler Room.
