Okay, we have this auditorium.

We can do the alien thing in here.

Mm-hmm.

And so that's where they came up with the idea that they would scrap the alien franchise

affiliation, and they would call it extra terrestrial, which was the name of the ride.

And it pretty much is how I remembered it, which was the main thing about this ride that was crazy, was the experiential element of it, where you're in this auditorium.

And obviously something goes wrong and there's an alien on the loose.

But for 1995, the fact that they could use the sound and like pan it around the room, you would be like, it's behind me.

Like, and you would be like, oh, it's open. People would be yelling. It's across the room.

And then when it would be eating

someone in front of you, you would feel mist or condensation in your front. When it was moving

behind you, you'd feel it on your back. It would breathe on you. And it was the most terrifying

thing I'd ever experienced at the time. Maybe to this day. My mom had a meltdown. Like,

my mom's not someone who likes to be scared. Anybody who listens to this show, probably not

surprised. I'm a giant pussy. I don't like being scared at all. Didn't like it more back then.

And, like, I had a nervous breakdown. Like, there. And again, I heard uh a couple of people you know uh the clinton

years yeah absolutely uh dan says i'm nine family beach for summer vacation and uh mom and little

brother went to hunchback in notre dame so dad and i are like, we're going to go ride the cool guy rides.

And he said, we did it that day, but then a year later, they talked his mom into going back into it.
