The Voice in the Trees

From Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson
A spectral voice singing Flint's song terrifies the pirates — actually Ben Gunn — and stages the novel's eerie supernatural register before puncturing it.
Chapter 32

A high, trembling voice sings 'Fifteen men on the dead man's chest' from the woods, calling for 'Darby M'Graw.' The pirates believe it is Flint's ghost; Silver alone keeps his nerve.
