Summary: "Le Fantôme de l'Opéra" by Gaston Leroux is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around the mysterious figure known as the Phantom who haunts the Palais Garnier opera house in Paris, intertwining horror, obsession, and romance, particularly focusing on the life of Christine Daaé, a talented young soprano, and the men who are captivated by her, including the Phantom and the aristocratic Raoul de Chagny. At the start of this captivating tale, the author presents an intriguing foreword where he asserts the Phantom of the Opera's real existence, countering the notion that he is merely a figment of imagination. The narrative quickly draws readers into the opera house, where a group of ballet dancers express their fear of the Phantom after witnessing his haunting presence. The opening introduces dark themes and superstitions surrounding the Phantom, notably emphasized by the shocking news of the death of Joseph Buquet, an important machinist. This combination of eerie atmosphere and hints at tragic backstories sets the stage for a story filled with passion, danger, and the quest to uncover the truth behind the enigmatic Phantom, inviting readers to delve deeper into the mysteries of love and fear that permeate the opera house.
