Phantom of the Opera Introduction
“Floating, falling, sweet intoxication. Touch me, trust me, savour each sensation. Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in to the power of the music of the night.”
Can you resist the allure of the Phantom of the Opera? The world-famous musical is based on a novel written by French author Gaston Leroux, first published way back in 1909 as a series. Phantom of the Opera is partly inspired by real events at the Paris Opera in the nineteenth century, and a fictional story involving the use of a real skeleton in a theatre production named Der Freischütz. Phantom of the Opera has been adapted many times but surely the most important of them all is Andrew Lloyd Webber’s 1986 musical – where the beautiful soprano Christine becomes the centre of the attention of a disfigured musical genius who lives in an underground labyrinth. Phantom of the Opera is the second-longest running West End show, right after the other epic classic, Les Miserables.

Phantom of the Opera Game Features
Phantom of the Opera is played on 5 reels with stunning 243 ways to win. You can spin away the glorious reels of this online slot from just € 0.3, and the maximum bet is also a less-than-steep € 15.
Phantom Masks, binoculars, roses, and scrolls join the main characters from the musical – Carlotta, Raoul, Christine and the Phantom – on the reels of this video slot which also features a Wild symbol. The Wild can replace all symbols except for the Phantom Mask and the Letter, while there are huge chances that the Phantom, Christine and Raoul symbols will land on your reels as double stacks.
Besides this, Phantom of the Opera has some hidden special features – more of a friendly spectre than a ghoul, we’d say.
Phantom of the Opera Free Spins and bonuses
The Music of the Night Free Spins feature gives you 10 free spins, during which you will benefit from the random Phantom features on each free spin: up to 5 wilds placed at random placed wild symbols, up to 3 random wild reels, and between 2 and 5 extra free spins and a multiplier of 2x and 4x.
The Letter Bonus feature is triggered when the Letter symbol lands on the fifth reel. You will receive a multiplied cash prize, which can reach up to a whopping 20x your stake.
The third bonus mode is the Chandelier Bonus feature, which is triggered at random and without much warning. The Opera House Chandelier will land onto the reels out of nowhere, and it will turn 2 if not 3 reels fully wild. Needless to say, your winning probabilities will greatly increase as a result of this!
But this is not all. There’s another Free Spins feature called the All I Ask of You which offers you ten free spins, and the Christine and Raoul symbols turn into wilds which move around the reels and land into adjacent positions at random. If these two symbols land on the same reel position, you will get a multiplied prize of 3x and if they land on the same reel, the whole reel will turn into a wild!
The Masquerade Pick Bonus is a “pick me” game where you choose from among the masks to collect prizes.
Phantom of the Opera Payouts
The lowest paying symbols are the binoculars, the red jar, the book and other symbols – paying way less than the five main characters of this opera who offer substantially larger payouts besides triggering the odd bonus feature here and there.
