This week on the Horrorcraft Podcast, we’re lighting the last candelabras and descending beneath the Paris Opera House for the finale of Gothic Ghoul Winter with special guest co-host Kate Reeves (and yes, she’s Kylee’s sister). 🕯️🎭

Cass and Kylee 🖤❄️ take center stage with the 2004 film adaptation of The Phantom of the Opera — a sweeping gothic tragedy of masks, music, obsession, and doomed love echoing through candlelit corridors. From the crashing chandelier to the candlelit lair beneath the opera, we’re diving into the dark romance and operatic horror that make this tale eternally haunting.

With Kate joining the discussion, we unravel the Phantom’s tortured soul, Christine’s impossible choice, and why this lavish, melancholic love story is the perfect curtain call for Gothic Ghoul Winter. Roses, candles, and the Music of the Night included. 🌹🖤

💬 Tell us: are you Team Phantom or Team Raoul?
