What if, instead of being the Phantom, Erik was a famous impresario with complete artistic control over the Paris Opera House? What if he lived above ground and was known to the other characters not as the Opera Ghost, but as a man?

A story about the dangers of roleplaying, and a secret-admirer that will do anything to capture the heart of a girl whose mind is half in fiction, even become her Phantom of the Opera. All original characters.

A reimagining, written for a dear, dear friend. Characters are based loosely on Susan Kay's interpretations. Chapters will be posted as they are finalized. I'm working on updating this now. I apologize for the long delay.
