    But here is a riddle to guess if you can, sing the bells of Notre Dame: What makes a monster and what makes a man?

    Lover, what have you become? Coal cars and oil drums, warehouse walls and factory floors. I don't know you anymore. And in the meantime up above, the harvest dies and people starve. Oceans rise and overflow. It ain't right and it ain't natural.

    Farewell my fallen idol and false friend. We had such hopes and now those hopes are shattered.

    I was once a dreamer, now I'm man's redeemer! We're on the verge of new frontiers! She's going to be perfect! God is here on earth! I am the modern Prometheus, bear witness to her birth!

    Look around you! I have found you cannot tell, by lookin' at the surface, what is lurkin' there beneath it!

    For a town should have a tale to tell, be it highwaymen or wishing wells. The ghost that stalks the graveyard, the banshee and her cry. The whisper tree where lovers died. Ev'ry story longs to be heard, and this is hers...

    On the north-east tip of North America, on an island called Newfoundland, there's an airport. It used to be one of the biggest airports in the world, and next to it is a town called Gander. Welcome to the Rock if you come from away!

    I love reading (anything from epic fantasy to gothic horror to sociology), writing, musicals (some of my favorites are Come From Away, Les Miserables, and The Clockmaker's Daughter), history, crochet, The Owl House, Hollow Knight, and The Locked Tomb. I'm currently learning how to use French smallsword and rapier, and how to speak Welsh and German. And I'm an anthropology major!

  1. I finally got around to reading Gaston Leroux's Phantom out the Opera! I finished it today and loved it. I recommend it to anyone who likes classics that involve ghosts. It's also way different from the musical, which i love.

    My thoughts on some adaptations:

    Andrew Loyd Webber's 1987 adaptation is amazing, as previously mentioned. I love the play, and the 2004 movie. (Although there are a few things about it that are annoying, like his mask not covering the whole deformed area of his face, and it never mentions Erik's name). 

    I have seen part of the TV adaptation from the 1970's, I believe, and it was just cool. Some of the lines are just so dark, and appeal highly to my writer soul. It's cool. (The first half that i watched is on YouTube).

    Then the 1925 adaptation. The first adaptation. It's the one that's the closest to the book. There is no sound, but I found it really entertaining. It was really well done. (Guys, Lon Chaney, the guy who played the Phantom, did his own makeup). I'd actually highly recommend this one, even though it's so old. It's really good. I found it on Wikipedia under the page for the specific movie. 

    Thanks for reading this little piece of randomness. :)
