Lon Chaney's horrific, self-applied make-up was kept secret right up until the film's premiere. Not a single photograph of Chaney as The Phantom was published in a newspaper or magazine or seen anywhere before the film opened in theaters. Universal Pictures wanted The Phantom's face to be a complete surprise when his mask was ripped off.
Gregory Peck's earliest movie memory is of being so scared by The Phantom of the Opera (1925) at age 9 that his grandmother allowed him to sleep in the bed with her that night.
According to the film's cameraman Charles Van Enger, one of Lon Chaney's most trusted associates, Mary Philbin's reaction to the unmasked Phantom was real--she had no idea what he would look like until that exact moment.
When Rupert Julian was first presented with the script, he simply said "Lon Chaney, or it can't be done!"
Lon Chaney devised his own make-up.
"The Phantom: [Christine sees a casket in the room] That is where I sleep. It keeps me reminded of that other dreamless sleep that cures all ills - forever! Christine Daae: You - You are the Phantom! The Phantom: If I am the Phantom, it is because man's hatred has made me so. If I shall be saved, it will be because your love redeems me."
"The Phantom: [title card] [at the Bal Masque as "The Red Death"] The Phantom: Beneath your dancing feet are the tombs of tortured men! Thus does The Red Death rebuke your merriment!"
