The Americans were just reaaaaally sick of the British

How come the Phantom from Phantom of the Opera isn’t a more common blorbo beloved by all tumblr. He killed people because he was so in love. He really wanted his crush to sing. He was defeated by the power of love and empathy because he never once experienced live in his life. His own mother was afraid of him. He died of love after the woman he loved went away with someone else. Let her go freely after she kissed him because all he wanted was affection. He killed a man. Wikipedia describes him as a dog willing to die for the one he loved. His name is Erik. He’s such a sad little meow meow

Mdm Giry describing her interactions with the Ghost to the new managers, while a man behind her gestures silently how she’s lost all her marbles 

Raoul explaining to the inspector about the Ghost that took Christine and how he met him once at a graveyard, the inspector going: “Of course! ... That's where ghosts usually hang out!”

The new managers doing their best Stan and Ollie routine in order to find out where the envelope with the money went while hell was breaking loose at the Opera

gaston leroux being the most unserious writer moments in TPOTO:

-raoul scaling down a tree to see Christine while she’s roaming the moors at night mid breakdown

-one of the opera staff claims that christine has friends plotting against Carlotta, to which another staff member goes “christine has friends?”

-gaston describes a toad coming out of Carlotta’s mouth and then goes “lmao I’m just messing that didn’t actually happen” what a troll

-the unnamed narrator holding Richard’s hand for and I quote “a few minutes” because he saw the opera ghost and got scared

-raoul straight up crying during a performance because christine sounds nervous

POTO Bilingual Version

I made this pdf document using the two texts of Phantom from Project Gutenberg so I could keep track of what de Mattos left out of the original novel (none of this is my own translation). I thought I'd share it since I know others were also interested in seeing just how much was cut/changed, and it's nice to be able to search with ctrl + f.

I've laid them out side by side, lining up sections by paragraph:

Chapter titles are hyperlinked with the table of contents and footnotes are hyperlinked with their place in the text.

Please feel free to share freely as both texts are in the public domain.

I hope you enjoy!

In my Phantom of the Archives AU, the End doesn't allow death to be so easily and completely avoided, this means that when Jonah takes a new body, part of the face is automatically marked by death. He has found a way to extend his life, but there will always be an indicator of its unnatural nature. In the case of my design, this 'mark' is gaunt, skeletal scarring branching out from one of his (original) eyes, the moment they are placed in new sockets. That's why Elias wears the mask.

The Phantom is, of course, Jonah.

(I will be doing a character sketch sheet with a closer look at his design with and without the mask.)

See if i fell in love with a mysterious masked figure that lives in the catacombs and they said they didnt want to remove the mask becaue it will scare me i wouldnt believe them since i dont think it will but I would simply go "thats okay babe its alright if youre not ready I respect your bounderies" but that will simply never happen because fortunately to us all france isn't real
