Does anybody know about the strange affair of the phantom of the opera?

I would like to get more information about the facts presented in Gaston Leroux's Phantom of the Opera. I would also like to know wether Erik really existed or if his story was entirely fictional.

Any info would be appreciated, i.e. personal knowledge or websites.

thank you

hi, I'm new here but when I saw your post I just had to answer since I'm a lover of The Phantom of the Opera. I have read that in one of the books it informs the readers in the authors letter that once people had begun an investigtion-thing under the Opera house (L' Opera Garnier) they had found bodies of some of the crew members of the opera house and had also found a body near an underground lake, which if you read the book you'd know that was Raoul's brother Phillipe, and so when they found another body that they couldn't identify they were absolutly positive that it was the body of Erik, the "Opera Ghost". You see I asked the same questions manny times before to myself but could never really find the answers I wanted, so when I actually went through the whole book, from page to page, I had read the authors letter and then I just knew *sighs* but then again, I'm a hopless romantic :) and they didn't have a lot of out modern technology back then so yeah. But I really hope it was him.

Without a doubt Erik was real just as you and me.I do have to say the opera the movie and the love between christine and him are all lies.He had a family and a wife and his wife was not christine.Bodies found,HA if you only knew, the truth of a beautiful man gaston made out to be a beast.

If you read the back of the book, the author quite simply states he most defiantly believes in Erik. There are some people out there who think this is false, but I personally think it's true. i got the book at my local public library which amazingly had it considering it is the worst library I have ever set foot in. You might have good luck in yours, if not, I would try ebay or amazon, there were several in english there this week. The back of the book answers almost every question though :)

I think it's true, but then again, I've only read the book 10 million times, (ok, more like 6 or 7,) and every time I read the prolouge I get more and more convinced.
