There is a horse shown in the song "The Phantom of the Opera" that Christine rides down a ramp and then they leave it there as they make their way to the boat, but it happens in-song so I'm not sure if it's actually a canon event.

Gerard Butler wears prosthetics to appear "deformed", but by the standards of most productions, it isn't as bad as everyone acts. He looks like a burn victim with red skin, missing an eyebrow, and deformed ear.

There is nothing truly incestuous, but there is the fact that the Phantom is very obviously attracted to Christine, but at first Christine thinks the Phantom is the spirit of her dead father... it does kind of toe the line a bit.

in "music of the night," the christine faints and is laid to rest on the phantom's bed. he sings to her, "help me make the music of the night;" it's a metaphor, and it is implied she has been deflowered.
