3. Erik – The Phantom
He was born with a disfigured face. His
mind is also full of hatred and disgust.
People dislike his look and shunned him.
This has made him hate people in
general. He lived is secrecy but made
his elusive appearance in the Opera
House. This makes people think that
there is a phantom lurking in the Opera
House.
5. I find Erik in the novel, ‘ The Phantom of the
Opera’, most interesting. Being very
intelligent, he was in fact a genius with
many talents. Yet he had a twisted mind.
He was a brilliant builder, musician and
ventriloquist. He helps build the Paris
Opera House, and at the same time, built
a series of secret trapdoors and
passageways to safeguard entry to his
hideout.
6. When he met Christine Daae’, he
became obsessed with her. Like any man,
he needed love from a woman. Sadly for
him, it was one-sided and he died of a
broken heart in the end due to his emotion
vulnerability.
