A Bridge of Ideas

Both "The Phantom of the Opera" and "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" illuminate the profound tension between artistic obsession and the corrupting influence of hidden desires. You seem drawn to explorations of dual natures and the sacrifices demanded by passion, as these works present distorted reflections of the creator/created dynamic, revealing a shared, almost theatrical, exploration of society's outcasts and the monstrous within.
