Tower of Terror: Untold Stories is an entirely new experience developed by GSK for Virtual Paradise. Whereas Tower of Terror was ported and upgraded in quality from ActiveWorlds, and had been in use since 2013 and therefore subject to that platform's restrictions, Untold Stories is developed exclusively for Virtual Paradise from the ground up. As a result, the level of detail has been increased significantly throughout the attraction, and teleporting between each pre- and post-ride scene is no longer necessary. Additionally, Untold Stories introduces new technologies and development methods exclusive to Virtual Paradise, including smoother camera movements, increased animation counts, and a probability engine, used to determine slight differences between rides at any given moment.
Tower of Terror: Untold Stories takes place in an abandoned elevator located inside The Hollywood Tower Hotel, an elaborate facade created to house the ride and its operations systems. According to the back story, riders are placed inside a seemingly ordinary hotel elevator, from which people mysteriously disappeared under the influence of a supernatural element many years prior.
