The Phantom of the Opera and Other Gothic Tales collects twenty-five classic stories shaped by gothic’s mood of menace and the macabre. In addition to the world-famous title novel, about a “ghost” who terrorizes the personnel of the Paris Opera House, the book includes Horace Walpole’s The Castle of Otranto, the book that launched the gothic novel craze, as well as stories by H. P. Lovecraft, Edgar Allan Poe, Mary Shelley, Arthur Machen, Louisa May Alcott, E. T. A. Hoffmann, J. Sheridan Le Fanu, and Vernon Lee. ER -
