I love Erik, I mean, I really love him. But I just feel a little bit...anxious at night. Oh! And I also had this feeling of Erik was going to come to my bedroom, and stare at me for the rest of the night, but without hurting me. Like what he did to Raoul. I'm so scareddddddddd!
I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels like that! I told my phantom fan friends that, and they told me I was craz!Originally Posted by emilysweety
I know how you feel too. Erik is one if my favorite literary characters, but at night, in dark, I imagine that he'll release the chandlier from the ceiling in my front hall and he'll force me to stare without the mask on as if he's trying to get me to stay away from Christine. I'm a guy by the way.

That's odd...I had a dream like that once, where Erik came out of my closet mirror (almost full-length) and just stood over me and watched me sleep. I think I hid under my blankets
Do you dream about it? Try controlling your dream--it's quite fun to do. Tell him to leave or ask him what he wants.

Leroux did write Erik as a 'monster' in many ways, so I can totally see how some folks can get the chills after reading the original novel. It is quite different from the other versions that make Erik more embraceable.
When Lon Chaney' film came out folks in the theater fainted after Christine removed the mask...

WOW!! There is nothing to be afraid of for a couple of reason's. He never loved Christine Dea as the story depicts and i have not figured out how Roul plays a role in this yet. Erik married and had 2 kids. He is not a monster so rest your pretty little heads at night.
Wow, you guys' dreams sound really scary! I've had a "Phantom"-themed dream, but it was more movie-based, not the original novel.
