Did you know that Lon Chaney's Erik is 32 years old?

Yes. This goofy ass man is 32 years old.

So, the silent movie gives a few and undetailed comment about Erik's life before he became the Opera Ghost. A script cheating? Maybe, but it's a 1925 movie with 1 hour and 50 minutes so we excuse that.

Erik was born during the Boulevard Massacre, an event that happened on 23/2/1848, Paris. The main story takes place in 1881 as the original novel, so yeah, Erik is 32 years old and his birthday is 23th February. THIS SILLY MOTHERFUCKER IS ONLY 32 YEARS OLD.

I think 1925 Erik's backstory could be such an interesting thing to explore. He doesn't seem to have traveled to Persia and was born in Paris instead of Rouen, was accused of witchcraft and exiled on an Island by reasons not fully explained... i wonder what could be explored about him. Will i write a fanfiction about his past and a sequel to the 1925 movie?... HELL, YES.

Lon Chaney Erik!

I plan to draw more scenes from the 1925 film :)

Also, let us all collectively agree to ignore my handwriting...

Happy birthday to Lon Chaney’s Erik! On this day 176 years ago, this sweet and very innocent sewer gremlin was born! I bet he was the cutest baby ��

More Erik The Phantom Headcanons!

these are all autistic hcs since @madreemeritus asked for more, i am happy to deliver on more of one of my favorites boys!

let's start off strong with this mans EGO, alot of autistic people are kind of full of ourselves lol this man is always boasting how articulate and amazing he is and how better he is at everything than you (example: playing the organ)

2. he has the opposite of sensory overload this man has sensory UNDERLOAD he will nearly go deaf with all the loud music cheering and clapping going on in the opera, he loves loves loves the sounds.

3. nervously picks and bites at his skin around his nails, he gets very understimulated and needs some type of sensory outpit, so picking it is! (me too)

4. one word. Dysgraphia. This man's handwriting is SHIT (again me too)

5. hygiene is not that great... his breath prob smells like straight up cyanide and ass, anyways hygiene is something all autistic people deal with in one way or another, like we forget to brush our teeth or purposely don't because it feels horrendous.

6. stimming! stimming! stimming! he definitely does this especially at points where Christine holds his hand ever so gently, or how she hits the most perfect high note on stage. he can't help but jump a little, or alot lol

7. he occasionally deals with echolalia, when Christine tells him "i love you Erik" he will get giddy and repeat it 10 times over, not just for reassurance but because it makes him so happy, "Christine loves Erik!"

8. he may not deal with sound sensitivity but textures are def a big NO. he must only wear silks and soft materials, he will complain of a thousand prickles on his skin if you make him wear such cheap and horrible textures.

9. again with the textures is food, i feel like since the acid hit his mouth his teeth must have been affected making them weaker. he tends to eat much softer foods, like puddings, soups.

10. thought about this last one alot and I think he might have light sensitivity as well, since he only uses candles to light his dark bedroom, and likes to keep the lights off in his private box. His eyes were badly injures, leaving them extremely sensitive to light.

thanks for requesting more phantom headcanons! i got a bit more technical with these ones compared to my last post because i thought i could also make this somewhat educating for people who might not know certain things about us autistic individuals. anyways tell me what you think and don't be afraid to add some of your own interpretations or headcanons of autistic Erik!

So I was watching 1925 Phantom again recently and I was once again struck by the absolute downgrade we’ve experienced when it comes to Erik’s deformity.

You’re telling me that in 1925, Lon Chaney managed to turn himself into THAT thanks to nothing more than a book description, a roll of wire and some imagination

But cut to 79 years later, what feels like a thousand different Phantom adaptations to reference and incredible advancements in both practical and digital effects and we decide that all Gerard Butler needs to become the Phantom is a half-hearted attempt at a sunburn and an allergic reaction?

HOW HAVE WE DOWNGRADED

Curse you society and your need to force hotness upon everything :(((

(No hate to any of the makeup artists or production people btw. They’re just tryna do what’s asked of them :) )
