House
Christine Daae
Was a soloist of
the Opera House

Christine loved
Raoul de Chagny,
a French aristocrat,
who wanted
to marry her
Strange things
happened
at the Opera
House

6.

Everyone knew
the Phantom lived
in the basement
and was guilty for
those strange incidents

7.

He always wore the
mask
because his face
was ugly at birth.
Only Christine
wasn’t afraid of
the Phantom
because
he was her
musical teacher.

8.

He used his
hypnotic abilities
and
had a great power
over Christine
He loved the girl
and guarded her
carefully.

Sometimes Christine
disappeared from
the Opera House
and her behavior
was very strange

10.

Raoul understood that
he could loose his beloved
and tried to save Christine
from the Phantom
Raoul struggled
courageously
but the Phantom
wasn’t a weak
arrival.

11.

In the long run the Phantom understood
that Christine didn’t love him.
He freed the young pair

12.

Christine and Raoul
got married and left
Paris forever.
They lived a long
happy life

Every birthday
Christine received
a red rose from the
unhappy man
who loved her until
he died in the
basement of the
Opera House
alone and lonely

THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA
In sleep he sang to me,
In dreams he came...
that voice which calls to me
and speaks my name...
And do I dream again?
For now I find
the Phantom of the Opera
is there- inside my mind...

15.

Sing once again with me
our strange duet...
My power over you
grows stronger yet...
And though you turn from me,
to glance behind,
the Phantom of the Opera
is there- inside your mind...

16.

Those who have seen your face
draw back in fear...
I am the mask you wear...
It's me they hear...
My spirit
and my voice
in one combined:
the Phantom of the Opera
is there- inside my mind...

17.

In all your fantasies,
you always knew
that man and mystery...
were both in you...
And in this labyrinth
where night is light,
the Phantom of the Opera
is there
inside my mind...

18.
