History
Universal Studios operated a studio tour from 1915 to the late 1920s. The idea of the tour was revived when Universal opened its first theme park in Hollywood. Since 1963, Universal has updated the tour on a regular basis with new set pieces, scenes and experiences.
For at least the earthquake and King Kong scenes, Anitech Systems supplied the show control.
