Please note

Sorry, we aren't able to make images or video for this item available to the public online.

In the eaves, the tunnels, the trap doors and the back stairs of the Paris Opera House a menacing figure watches. Captivated by the beautiful diva, Christine, the Phantom of the Opera is trapped by his hideous appearance hidden behind his cloak and mask. A beautifully animated adaptation of the ageless classic tale for children of all ages.
