ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter officially opened on June 20, 1995, as part of the Magic Kingdom's New Tomorrowland renovation. Imagineers adjusted the show to make sure guests knew what going on, and reprogrammed every computer system with each show element. The second pre-show was reworked to make it match the dark tone of the main show. Disney retooled the original version of the second pre-show and main show and spent an extra $10 million for improvements. On January 12, 1995, the attraction was closed for retooling by then-Disney CEO Michael Eisner, who felt that it was not intense enough. It was widely criticized by park guests for its violence, storyline and comedic tone of the pre-show in comparison to the darker tone of the actual attraction. The attraction opened briefly for previews on December 16, 1994, on the site of the former Mission to Mars attraction. In late 1993, Magic Kingdom announced that ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter would be coming to the park.
On October 12, ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter was closed to the public to start production on Stitch's Great Escape!. A co-production between Walt Disney Imagineering and Lucasfilm (then separate from The Walt Disney Company), the attraction was a darkly humorous science fiction experience that used binaural sound to achieve many of its effects.Īfter years of declining popularity and increasing complaints from park guests, Disney announced on Septemthat a new Lilo & Stitch themed attraction would be replacing it.
The ExtraTERRORestrial Alien Encounter (often abbreviated Alien Encounter) was a "theater-in-the-round" attraction located in the Tomorrowland section of the Magic Kingdom theme park at Walt Disney World Resort.
