Gaston Leroux 
The Phantom of the Opera 

A favourite of Gothic horror stories, a tale of unrequited love, passion and tragedy in this new Fantastica edition of Leroux’s ‘The Phantom of the Opera’ novel. The story takes us far beneath the majesty and splendour of the Paris Opera House. This is where hides the Phantom in his shadowy existence. Shamed by his physical appearance and feared by all, the love he holds for his beautiful protégé Christine Daaé is so strong that her heart cannot resist, even though she has fallen for her childhood friend.
