Hello all!

It’s my favorite time of the year, and that means an appropriately spooky script for this lovely Halloween season! This one was a long time in the making, so I hope it delivers!

For this one, I thought I would style it after The Phantom of the Opera by Gaston Leroux. As much as I adore the musical, I wanted to give the original novel a little love. The novel is much more within the horror genre as compared to the musical. Leroux describes the Phantom himself as more of a villain than he is often depicted in the musical. He is less the rock star anti-hero who just happens to have a facial deformity, and more a true creep, in both appearance and character.

Synopsis: The speaker plays the role of the Phantom, the infamous opera ghost and musical genius who haunts the Paris Opera House. He has abducted the listener, who plays Christine Daae, a young, aspiring opera singer. He has brought her underneath the opera house, to the intricate system of tunnels and hideaways that is his home. It is his wish that Christine can learn to love him. Wise to the Phantom’s weakness for her, Christine attempts to prove to him that she reciprocates his feelings. Once the Phantom is thoroughly convinced that Christine truly loves him and that she can be persuaded to return, he ultimately agrees to let her leave, so long as she agrees to wear his ring.
