Well, you can't say that it's a non-Disney Tower of Terror. First off, it's a reverse freefall coaster. Second, the official name for one of our favorite rides is The Twilight Zone: Tower of Terror. We just call it Tower of Terror for short. In fact, did you know there are two more Tower of Terrors? According to the Roller Coaster Database, there was a Tower of Terror looping coaster at Camelot Theme Park it England (it closed in 2002), and there's what appears to be a free-fall ride at Gold Reef City Theme Park in Australia which happens to be called Tower of Terror, but is also referred to as 'Shaft of Terror'.

"Tower of terror" is a pretty generic name, and I can't really see people getting confused about the two rides:) Interesting find though :D

Absolutly right, there was a Tower of Terror at Camelot. I have been on it. It was dismantled to make way for a new attraction. It was at the park form 1989. Camelot ToT

Tower of Terror hit 100 mph before Superman did and opened before Superman.

You're not referring to Disney's are you... because, again, it only goes 38 mph.

Lets think here - I don't think Dark is that stupid... Did he mention WDW in that sentence? Nah - Looks like he was sticking with the 100 mph one.
