 Possible Phantom: Love Never Dies Viral?
Broadway Sequel to the Andrew Lloyd-Webber Musical

Saw this on the website for the upcoming sequel:

Also, here's the official twitter account: http://twitter.com/the_phantom/
Possible Viral start? Or will it just be an announcement regarding the opening of the play?

Saw the musical on Broadway, and cried at the end. Read the book, loved it. Something tells me this won't be as amazing as I hope, but I will try it out anyways Smile

Seems interesting and certainly possible (especially with the video on this page): http://www.loveneverdies.com/october8th/

It seems to have important ties to Coney Island, which could be set up nicely for an ARG.

I don't believe it's an ARG. I think the date October 8th is the date they are announcing the opening dates for the play.

Coney Island is where the new musical is set:

"It is 1907. Ten years after the mysterious disappearance of The Phantom from the Paris Opera House, Christine Daae accepts an offer to come to America and perform at the fabulous new playground for the rich - Coney Island.

Arriving in New York with her husband Raoul and their son Gustave, Christine soon discovers the identity of the anonymous impresario who has lured her from France to sing."

=)

I was introduced to the joys of the Phantom of the Opera through playing ARGs. So even though I would love for this to be a game, I'm a bit sceptical at this point.

I have previously read The Phantom of Manhattan which is described as a sequel to the Weber play, not the original novel. I agree with the Amazon reviewers who claim that it fails to capture the spirit of the Phantom. It tells of the Phantom designing attractions at Coney Island. I don't recommend the book, but it could make for an interesting ARG.

Well, October 8 has arrived, and the official announcement has been made! You can watch it on the newly updated site, and you can get a free preview mp3 when you either pre-order the soundtrack or sign-up for email updates!
