It's in the Details #12

 In this series, we'll be looking at details that are hidden all around you at the parks. The Imagineers do a great job placing in many hidden gems and things to try that one has to take a moment to notice, or explore. Many of these are obvious and in plain sight, and some are hidden quite well, you just have to know where to look.


  One of my favorite attractions ever is the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror. Here in the States, it's obviously themed around the Twilight Zone, Rod Serling and all. What's great about this, is that little details and tributes to great moments of the show are peppered throughout the ride. In the left library, there's an odd little book lying on a shelf. Like most of the books there, it's written in something other than English; unlike the other books, it has a translation: 
TO SERVE MAN

  This is in reference to Episode 89, "To Serve Man", wherein aliens come to earth and help end humanity's problems. It appears to be in good nature when the title of a document left by the aliens at the U.N. is revealed to be "To Serve Man". However, it's purpose is incorrectly assumed until it's too late. Unfortunately for you, the only way to discover that is in... The Twilight Zone...
