[@simonhassnilsson7009]

@@bdpickett kind of weird since to my knowledge the story of phantom of the opera is in the public domain, and basically anyone can make a adaptation

[@olivegem6853]

This story kinda sounds like how Erik would tell the story of the Phantom of the Opera from his perspective. The tortured and tragic genius who won the love of the beautiful singer only to be killed by her jealous boyfriend.

[@Tacticslion]

I’ve had to clarify for my sons the difference between the actual Phantom of the Opera and this, just to be sure. The story changes are really strange and fascinating on their own right, and I’m curious why they were made, including renaming “Christine” to “Esmeralda” when they left “Raul”.

[@olivegem6853]

[@philspence3073]

I just wanna say that this makes the most sense for a goosebumps musical. When i first heard they were developing one. I was like "This is just gon be the first movie live on stage isn't it" but this makes so much sense. Not only does the "Phantom of the Auditorium" sounds like a musical, but the entire book upon which the musical is based is a complete parody of Phantom of the Opera (You have a mysterious phantom living in the theatre who then woos the leading lady on show night) This is so awesome. and I want more goosebumps material like this.

[@Tacticslion]

I personally appreciated the (as Zeke called it) "meta" nature of the story - you have the Phantom of the Opera, referenced in The Phantom which itself echos the school story: and just as the book PotO was turned into a play turned into a musical, you have the book PotA turned into an episode turned into a musical. All of which are about a living person dressed as a "phantom" who dies theatrically in events strongly correlating to a play; and the Goosebumps side is the living person dressed as a "phantom" (after death) dies to become a literal phantom for the sake of that script. It's really a beautiful mess of recursive story-within-story-telling, and I love it. (And love that the music is so good.)

[@RavenStarMedia]

Apparently in the musical anyway it's more than a parody-The Phantom is meant to be a musical adaptation of Gaston Leroux's original novel of The Phantom of the Opera, they just changed Christine's name to Esmeralda and they had Raoul kill Erik/Phantom at the end.

[@cheebuu3360]

I would like to say that making a goosebumps work reference something from pop culture was something they did a lot in the books. Lizard of Oz comes to mind. (That one was so cheesy though, even for a Goosebumps book)

[@minanathans6005]

This has NO BUSINESS being as good as it is

[@terranova1203]

I agree

[@fluffysheep8999]

When she says "Put on your listening ears for five minutes" and you realize the song is five minutes long.

[@Sparrow-iw4jd]

Its 5:08 but she starts telling the story 8 seconds in so it really was five minutes

[@PrinceTrexus]

She starts singing at 0:08 so the song is EXACTLY five minutes long that's pretty cool

[@nicholast.4933]

I absolutely LOVE the background bits for this song - not something I’ve seen a lot of people talking about. The organ playing when it talks about the Phantom being a musical genius, the soprano singing at times while describing their connection. It’s just PERFECT. It’s straight up a love letter to ALW’s POTO.

As what's essentially a parody of the Phantom of the Opera's title song, this feels like a love letter. The composition has such nice nods to the original, the 80's rock ballad feel is just so nice and like this could have easily been garbage since it's basically just the ALW song copy pasted, but it feels like there's actual love put into this. Just pleasing, idk. Just feels like there's more care than just making a parody to cash in on phans.

[@RavenStarMedia]

Phantom of the Opera is one of my favorite musicals ever and I've loved the Goosebumps series since I was a kid (and loved Phantom of the Auditorium for that reason). And now not only do I find out there's a Goosebumps musical, but I found out they did a song based around Phantom of the Auditorium that basically sums up POTO and it's actually fantastic?1 This is freaking amazing.

[@bloodmooncomics2249]

This song is so good. It is crazy. I like how they went with a new version of Phantom of the Opera. I love the original book, but I also usually like the different versions people make up. Something really cool about Phantom of the Opera is how much people can change yet still easily resembles the original version.
