A very EVIL question it is! I've went over various reasons in my head why each one would be my choice but since you are forcing me to chose just one I had to do the unthinkable. So, here is my conclusion.......

I visually went through each attraction, that led me to a tie. I thought about the music of each, that led to a tie. I thought about which one I enjoyed the most as a kid (POTC), and now as an adult (HM)....still a tie.

So, after all of that I thought about which attraction I would like to do a "walk-through" meaning everything turned on and running, just that I could walk through at my leisure and check out every aspect of them up close.

After all of that, it is Pirates but by a slim margin (darn you!).

Pirates. I have always loved both attractions, however, Pirates really does hold a special place in my memory...it was my favorite ride since my very first visit when I was a kid.

Hmmmm... I guess everyone can guess that I would choose Pirates. I have always enjoyed that ride, the music, the movies.... sorry HM.

This is a very hard question to answer. Those are 2 of the best rides in the Magic Kingdom! Although I do like Haunted Mansion just a bit more than Pirates.

I voted for POTC.

I've never been on Haunted Mansion because I don't like spook houses. I loved Pirates before they updated it to include parts of the movies (no offense, Johnny Depp fans :lol: ). I still enjoy it though.

Foolish mortals! The HM is perhaps the pinnacle of Disney rides! :hm_ghost:

That really is evil to have to choose, and right now HM is slightly ahead, but I had to choose Pirates of the Caribbean. I *LOVE* whistling along with the pirates in the jail. Sometimes I just do it randomly, even hundreds of miles from the World.
I also love that they added Captain Jack Sparrow. They added just enough to put him in but not to overdo it like they have done with other rides. *ahem*STITCH*ahem*
I love the mist curtain with Davy Jones as well. Very cool.

I love the Haunted Mansion!
To be honest, I have a hard time going on Pirates since they made the additions and changed the area music.
