The Story
The Phantom of the Opera is a novel by French writer Gaston Leroux. It was first published as a serialization in Le Gaulois from 23 September 1909, to 8 January 1910. It was published in book form in late March 1910 by Pierre Lafitte.
The novel is partly inspired by historical events at the Paris Opera during the nineteenth century and an exorcism that was performed there in 1843. It tells the story of a beautiful soprano, Christine Daaé, who becomes the obsession of a mysterious, disfigured musical genius known only as “the Phantom.” The Phantom falls in love with Christine and abducts her to live with him in the catacombs beneath the Opera, where he holds her captive and forces her to sing for him.
The novel has been adapted into various stage and screen productions, most notably Andrew Lloyd Webber’s 1986 musical and its 2004 film adaptation.
