Phantom darkfic collection

Since it's a subject of my own interest and since it seems so rare in the Phantom of the Opera fandom, I'm collecting a list of 'dark' Phantom fan fiction and I'm starving for recommendations. Any fic that's dark, sick, twisted, morbid, potentially disturbing, or that stresses the horror aspect of the story belongs here. I'd start a Fanfiction.net C2 community on the subject, but apparently you're not allowed to archive R-rated fics in them and I have the feeling that would prevent the inclusion of a large proportion of these stories.

Please, please, please note that by themselves, angst, slash, character death, and the like don't qualify stories for the list. In other words, I don't care how soul-crushing Erik's angst is, or how much slash squicks you--if there's no horror or disturbing element there, no dice. In addition, there are fics like Phantoms of the Mind that deal with heavy subject matter but which I don't feel belong on the list.

A tentative list compiled off the top of my head:

The Consequences
The Innocent
Curses of the Siren
The Body
Bodies on the Shore
Mirrors
Elainie
Tea Solves Everything
The Portal

Comment if you've got any to add.

i'm just commenting to say that this is the most interesting Valentine's Day I've had. Reading morbid Phantom fics, how fun! ^_^ *continues laughing her arse off*

I just wanna say that "Tea Solves Everything" was so good, it made me want to barf. *shuddershuddershudder* Really good stuff, that.
