Tower of Terror- Different version of ride?

So, last time I was at HS in December 2010 I rode ToT during the evening EMH. My family and I had ridden it at least 4 times in a row and on the very last ride of the night the cast member had us go to a library on the very far left(as opposed to the ones right in front of the line or slightly to the right) and we were the only ones there. I was excited because in all the times I've ridden ToT I never went to that particular library waiting room before. But once we got onto the actual ride, it was also completely different from any other time I rode it before. The video of the ghosts of the guests was different and more elaborate and longer. Our vehicle stopped and the ghost told us more about the history of the hotel and there was a mirror that showed our vehicle and everyone inside it as well and I was really freaked out because I've ridden this ride my whole life and never saw this. And the actual ride part was at least twice as long as normal. Has anyone else had a similar experience? Is this something special or really just a part of the randomized additions they made that luck never allowed me to see before?

Strange. California Adventure's version of Tower of Terror includes a part where you see yourself in a mirror, but I've never seen that happen in Florida. But I do think that we know a lot less about that ride than everyone thinks!

Im sorry. That can't physically happen.
And the actual ride part was at least twice as long as normal.
Same as.
there was a mirror that showed our vehicle and everyone inside it as well
Either the eyeball effect of the Summernightasitc effect still working in the basement projection. Or you've ridden the DL, Tokyo or WDSP version.

The mirror was around during Summer Nightastic.

In the hundreds of times I've been on the Tower (in all of the libraries and elevators), I have never had any of the other things happen to me. To my knowledge, the only other bit of randomization is the drop sequence.

...You seem to have slipped into another dimension in which Florida's Tower of Terror combined with California's Tower of Terror to create a SUPER Tower of Terror.

If this happened it wouldn't be a SUPER Tower of Terror, it would just be worse.

the only thing that sounds familiar is the mirror thing that was during summer nightastic. i can't remember when they stopped it. if i remember correctly the last few times i've been to the world and rode didn't have it. the only other thing would be the views. one looks towards the hat and sunset boulevard. the other looks to the back of the park where the "ear tower" is. this may be a version of the tot not at Disney world or land. i would google it.
