* In ''ComicBook/AllGhoulsSchool'', minor student Christine is implied to be the niece of the original.
* The {{Elseworlds}} story ''Franchise/{{Batman}}: Masque'' has an 1890s version of Batman fighting a villain called the Phantom who is terrorising the ballet. The Phantom is Harvey Dent, once a proud and accomplished dancer, who was horribly scarred on stage when his costume caught fire from one of the stage lights. He is now obsessed with up and coming ballerina Laura Avian and will do anything to make her happy. Even commit murder.
* In ''ComicBook/DetectiveComicsRebirth'' #950 Cassandra Cain is shown to live in the attic of the Gotham opera house, giving rise to a rumor that it is haunted due to her [[CreepyGood eerie, stitched-up black mask]], and she has taken a particular interest in a ballerina named Christine. The allusion is very obvious, though unlike usual examples she is both [[TheQuietOne silent]] and entirely benign.
* The ''ComicBook/JudgeDredd'' story "Phantom of the Shoppera" features a phantom that hits all the marks, except for haunting a shopping mall instead of a theatre. [[spoiler:It's also a robot.]]

* Zizz from the ''VideoGame/PopNMusic'' series is a ''[[OurGhostsAreDifferent literal]]'' phantom that takes many of the cues from the Phantom of the Opera - including an OminousOperaCape, a WhiteMaskOfDoom that covers half his face, and an OminousPipeOrgan for background music - and has MarionetteMaster powers on top of it. Like the original Phantom, he attempts to take control of his own "Christine", [[VirtualIdol ALT]], only he does it [[DemonicPossession with greater force]].

* During the climax of ''Film/MurdersInTheRueMorgue1971'', Marot is chasing Madeline around the theatre while wearing [[CoatHatMask top hat, opera cape and mask]], and swings from the rigging in a manner very reminiscent of the Phantom of the Opera.
