Such is my fascination with the lost 1916 version of THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA that I’m moving it out of Friday’s Links post and giving it its own space here. Because I can. I’ll update accordingly if/when my ‘net scavengings reveal more.

This thread at The Classic Horror Board features some great information and discussion - especially this one, which includes the poster’s translation of a synopsis of the film (which seems to be quite faithful to Leroux's original); image above from linked post.
