Close enough you got, all was not what it seemed,
The answer to question 1 was of a “Computer Screen”.
Here we now go, on to riddle number two,
Let’s see if I can be a little more clever for you,
Pay close attention and we’ll see how you fair,
Things will get trickier, I’m warning beware…
A phantom, a legend, tetrad here a time,
A shadow, a ghost, one opera does chime.
A musical, a decade so long it has played,
A song, whose memories have softly laid.
A man, singular spectator down in his seat,
A heart, two which the rhythm does beat.
A rose, soft petals, forget all you know,
A mask, to hide that which in stow.
A question, now asked plainly for all to seen,
A riddle, was it twenty-three, four or eighteen?
(Be sure to put in a guess before looking at the comments below).

It’s four. The answer, “it”, is the poem, but only the last four lines matter because you “forget what you know” before those lines.

Well, I'm sure I'm missing something but since a Tetrad refers to a group of four, I'm going to go with four.

Ah a fine riddle this was,
But the dead give away it twas.
In the Opera there was a masked Phantom that sung,
Hiding his face but belting his lungs.

If you're referring to the Seat, it's 4. Box 4.

The phantom of the opera is there, inside your mind. (probably a false answer, but that's what jumped to my mind reading the riddle)

I'm going to say: Four.
I assume the numbers have to do with a length of time, years for instance.

DEATHISNOTDEATH In reply to Undertook [2018-10-20 21:41:02 +0000 UTC]
I think it is to but why do you say four? He's been doing this longer that four years. I believe it's to do with his age and I forgot how old he is but he started this ten years ago.

Undertook In reply to DEATHISNOTDEATH [2018-10-21 00:50:12 +0000 UTC]
It seems like he is referring to The Phantom of the Opera. The story takes place a few years after the opening of the Garnier Opera House; I assume that the numbers referred to the number of years the Phantom was active by the time placement of the book, and four was the closest number to that.

DEATHISNOTDEATH In reply to Undertook [2018-10-21 03:44:06 +0000 UTC]
Oh well then. Also the phantom of the opera is based off the sewers when the book was made. If you didn't know that then look it up my French one teacher thought my class that.

twenty-three being the odd one for me as there four things (not sure what ones are all of them other than phantom, shadow, ghost and man are one) and eighteen times you stop a sentence

The Phantom of the opera has 23 letters, but a tetrad is 4. This is tricky.

Based on the number of lines in the riddle and their separation by commas, I'm gonna say 23.
