Description
This beautifully formatted edition includes 80 still images and the original poster from the 1925/ 1929 film starring Lon Chaney. The original Phantom of the Opera 1910 novel by French writer Gaston Leroux has spawned various stage and film adaptations, most famously the 1986 musical by Andrew Lloyd Webber, and the 2004 film starring Gerard Butler and Emmy Rossum.
The Phantom of the Opera (Le Fantôme de l'Opéra) is a gothic romance novel set in the Paris Opera House and is filled with intrigue and suspense. Written like a journal investigating mysterious events involving the "Opera ghost" Erik and the young Swedish opera singer Christine Daaé and her love Raoul, the Vicomte de Chagny.
Extract from the book: "The Opera ghost really existed. He was not, as was long believed, a creature of the imagination of the artists, the superstition of the managers, or a product of the absurd and impressionable brains of the young ladies of the ballet, their mothers, the box-keepers, the cloak-room attendants or the concierge. Yes, he existed in flesh and blood, although he assumed the complete appearance of a real phantom; that is to say, of a spectral shade."
