Following the bizarre incident, the hotel closed its doors-and fell into disrepair. Back in 1939, five glamorous guests disappeared while taking the elevator up to the hotel’s swank Tip Top Club for a Halloween party. Originally airing on October 26, 1997, Tower of Terror stars Steve Guttenberg as Buzzy Crocker-a journalist who believes he can solve the mystery of the Hollywood Tower Hotel.

Debuting on Novem(a full 40 years later), this Cinderella starred pop chanteuse Brandy as the girl in the cinders-plus the legendary Whitney Houston as the Fairy Godmother, Whoopi Goldberg as Queen Constantina, Alias’ Victor Garber as King Maximilian, Jason Alexander ( Seinfeld) as the herald, and Broadway’s Bernadette Peters as the wicked Stepmother. Perhaps the “grande dame” of this incarnation of The Wonderful World of Disney, Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Cinderella was a fresh take on the classic 1957 TV musical featuring Julie Andrews.

From the feature-film debut of a certain pop superstar, to the backstory behind a Disney Parks attraction, these seven TV movies continue the show’s grand tradition of unforgettable entertainment.
#THE WONDERFUL WORLD OF DISNEY 1997 MOVIE#
We’re celebrating its big 20th anniversary today with a look at some of this version’s most memorable movie premieres. The series’ most recent incarnation, ABC’s The Wonderful World of Disney, kicked off on September 28, 1997, with the network television premiere of Toy Story. In some capacity, a Walt Disney TV anthology series has delighted viewers (on several different networks) since that first episode in ’54… it’s the second-longest-running primetime television program ever! The series was ultimately renamed The Wonderful World of Disney-and its aim remained true: to tell fantastic Disney stories to TV audiences around the world. Besides teasing what Disneyland would entail, each episode might also contain a “making-of” featurette about the latest Disney animated feature, or a True-Life Adventure documentary about forest animals. First broadcast in 1954, Walt Disney’s Disneyland was an anthology series with features themed to each of the park’s first four lands. Walt Disney and television… It’s a legendary partnership that began before Disneyland even opened its doors.
