“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...”
 

On the night of 31 october 1939 a family enters the Hollywood Tower Hotel.  A huge thunderstorm descends above the hotel.  As the family and the bellboy enter the service elivator, lighting strikes the hotel and the elevator drops to an other dimension. 

5 people disappear that night...

“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 recognise, is a maintenance service elevator. Still in operation, and 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.”
