Written by Gaston Leroux, the Phantom of the Opera is a story that jumps from supernatural to mystery to psychotic to romance to sentimental genre. A brilliant weaving of the tale of a forlorn individual in this 'normal' world.
A strange power within an opera house is scary and haunting. Everyone is starting to believe the existence of the ghost. An upcoming angel - like singer then disappears.
This affects, not only the opera house, but also her childhood friend and current admirer - Count Raoul. He vows to get to the bottom of the issue and as he unravels, he finds the opera ghost to be made of flesh with a crazy past and a desperate attitude. With the assistance of a man who knows the past of the 'ghost', he finds his way to his love and almost dies in the effort.
A stunning ending awaits the reader, that is sad and almost makes you empathize with the crazy murderous ghost.
