A classic Gothic horror that's full of suspense!

Although I may be one of few readers to dislike the Opera Ghost, I did absolutely love this story. It took a couple of chapters for the pace to pick up, but once it did, I was hooked. The final chapters are especially thrilling and I love that the book features all the classic elements of a Gothic horror.
