1776 kicks all kinds of ass.

I watched the Phantom of the Opera again, and I had a strange thought this time around. Madame Gerie has a daughter, Meg, but it makes no mention of a father.

Madame Gerie was the one who found the Phantom as a boy, and hid him.

Is the Phantom Meg Gerie's father?

It's possible, however, if they take it as the novel by Gaston LeRoux intended, then the Phantom is a virgin and, thus, couldn't be the father.

Ahhh. Never read the story. I'm only familiar with the new movie version.

Bummer. That was sort of a mind-job when it hit me.

The novel is excellent. There are, however, many profound differences between the musical and the novel, so they probably shouldn't be compared too freely. In the novel, for instance, the Phantom is about a hundred times more hideous than the Gerard Butler counterpart. He wears a death's head mask which, though hideous, is not nearly so as his actual face (that resembles a skull with skin drawn across it). He is also far more wicked by nature, although the pathos for the Phantom is still profound in the novel.
