The Phantom of the Opera is the titular main antagonist of the 1989 film of the same name. Unlike his counterpart, who is portrayed in a much more sympathetic and tragic way, this phantom is an evil serial killer, who is much more evil and violent than the original phantom.

He was portrayed by actor Robert Englund, who also played Freddy Krueger in the Nightmare on Elm Street film series, Anti-Pops in Regular Show, Lucifer in Married with Children, Bill Gartley in The Mangler, Scarecrow from Injustice 2, and the Riddler in the animated series The Batman.

The Phantom's original name was Eric Destler. He was a young composer who was trying to write a new opera. When he was practicing one day, he was approached by a man who told him he could make Eric's music as famous as that of Beethoven and Mozart. In return, however, Eric would have to sell his soul to Satan. Eric agrees. However, Satan only promised to make Eric's music famous, not Eric himself. The Devil mutilated Eric's face and told him that while people would love his music, no one could ever stand to love Eric for himself again. 

All the skin on Eric's face falls off, and Eric starts skinning people, so he can sew their skin on himself, however over time the skin decomposes so he must constantly agonizingly remove and replace it.
