It was first published as a serialisation in Le Gaulois from September 23, 1909 to January 8, 1910. It was published in volume form in April 1910 by Pierre Lafitte. The novel is partly inspired by historical events at the Paris Opera during the nineteenth century and an apocryphal tale concerning the use of a former ballet pupil's skeleton in Hector Berlioz's 1841 production of Der Freisch tz. Nowadays, it is overshadowed by the success of its various stage and film adaptations. The most notable of these are the 1925 film depiction featuring Lon Chaney and Andrew Lloyd Webber's 1986 musical. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cb\u003eAdaptations\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e There have been many literary and dramatic works based on Leroux's novel, ranging from light operas to films to children's books.
