== Details: ==

In Gaston Leroux's novel, '[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Phantom_of_the_Opera Le Fantôme de l'Opéra]' ('The Phantom of the Opera')~~, The Phantom of the Opera is a deformed former illusionist who is also referred to as the Angel of Music and the Opera Ghost~~. ~~This~~ episode ~~can be considered as another adaptation of this story in which~~ the Phantom seeks revenge for all those who had once mocked his musical works by blowing up the Paris opera house.

The episode of '[[Count Duckula Wiki|Count Duckula]]', 'A Fright at the Opera', can be considered as another adaptation of Gaston Leroux's immensely successful novel, '[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Phantom_of_the_Opera Le Fantôme de l'Opéra]' (translated as 'The Phantom of the Opera'). In this episode, the Phantom seeks revenge for all those who had once mocked his musical works by blowing up the Paris opera house.

The Phantom's plan to blow up the opera house involves the kidnapping of the prima donna of the opera, the great Elvira with ~~the aid of~~ his assistant [[Krool]]. He ~~plants~~ to take her to his lair in the sewers so he can force her to sing one of his compositions. When Elvira hits a perfect 'Top C' note, the bomb inside the Phantom's great organ would detonate, thereby obliterating anyone who happens to be inside the opera house at the moment, including [[Count Duckula]], [[Igor]] and [[Nanny]].
