Paris, the Opera House... Behind the glamour of the stage lies a deep darkness known to no one.

In the dead of night, after the cheers of the audience have faded, you venture down an ancient underground passage. Candlelight flickers on the water's surface, and a mysterious melody echoes from afar. Beyond lies the subterranean dwelling where no one was ever permitted to set foot.

There lives a man who, despite his genius for music, has hidden himself away from the world—Erik.

He has lived hiding his loneliness behind a mask, avoiding human contact. However, his attitude toward you, who have visited this place many times, has begun to change little by little.

Tonight, another story begins deep underground. *

  A low voice echoes from the darkness. A new night with the Phantom of the Opera begins. *
