The phantom (has anyone noticed?)

Has anyone noticed,that Gaston was alive when Erik was.No,I guess not...It is also clear that Gaston and Erik did not know each other as far as I can tell, cause if they did then maybe there wouldn't be so many questions.There is someone on here who say's he is the real phantom and then you have someone who lived it on here in that lifetime with Erik on here,what a mind trip.
Allow me to clarify myself to those who do not understand me, I am not bashing the phantom in anything I say in this or in any of my posts.Do not read inbetween the lines I am a very forward person.Thank you and good day

would you have a little faith and stop bashing the Phantom of the Oper?. It's a beautiful story, even if it's not true.
Is Harry Potter, Edward (Twilight), or even Luke Skywalker real? America still loves them...
If we like the story then the lovers of Phantom will continue such emotions...

Honey I am not bashing anyone but the writter.read carefully what I said.there is someone on here who says he is the real phantom and there is someone on here who lived that life with Erik.Hence saying,there are 2 people on here who have simuliar stories one was just actually there and does not care for the lies that are in the opera and in parts of the book and the movie.

I saw that thread. He meant only to compare his story to that of the Phantom. and the other is full of... baloney.

Yes, I've noticed and I have nothing else to say.
