THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA....IS A SPELLBINDING EXPERIENCE...IT IS FULL OF ATMOSPHERIC HORROR AND A SENSE OF GOTHIC MYSTERY. 255 PAGES IN PRINT! A GREAT READ! A CLASSIC!

The story of a man named Erik, an eccentric, physically deformed genius who terrorizes the Opera Garnier in Paris. He builds his home beneath it and takes the love of his life, a beautiful soprano, under his wing.

More than a love story, "The Phantom of the Opera" is a gothic tale of obsession --leading to madness. The Paris Opera House and its hidden rooms, and underground are perfect place to develop a horror story. Leroux noticed this potential. His descriptions of the place are creepy and in the end we start wondering if it is not a true story indeed.

Erik is the real star -- an arrogant genius who is also pitifully lonely. And insane. Despite his crazed behavior -- which results in at least two deaths -- it's hard not to feel sympathy for someone cursed with such a ghastly appearance, and so starved for human contact that a single kiss changes his life.

Just for the record, The Phantom of the Opera is a novel, not a play. It was written about 15 years before the silent movie version!
