The 1925 silent classic The Phantom of the Opera, starring Lon Chaney (above) in the title role, will be screened on Sunday, Oct. 25, at 2:30 pm at the San Gabriel Mission Playhouse. This Halloween Special presentation by the Los Angeles Theatre Organ Society will feature live musical accompaniment on a Wurlitzer theatre organ restored with the support of the Peter Lloyd Crotty Charitable Fund.
Directed by Rupert Julian, The Phantom of the Opera is perhaps Lon Chaney’s best-known movie role. At about that time, Chaney became a contract player at MGM, where he would star in a number of highly successful productions, some of which have popped up on Turner Classic Movies.
Based on Gaston Leroux's novel, the film adaptation of The Phantom of the Opera also features Mary Philbin, a popular Universal star of the period, and Norman Kerry, the burly leading man of numerous silent films.

So, Phantom of the Opera had a Halloween Special. I am interested to join but how can I do it?. I will think about a better way.
Thanks for the information!
