It's quite interesting since the story seems to have been initially written as 
a piece of fiction.

Dwight, 




Sounds like the plot of a Spielberg movie.

The Short Story 

Experienced Mammoth Cave folks may have heard of Melissa. She was in love with 
her tutor, but he failed to reciprocate her affections. For her revenge, she 
abandoned him in Mammoth Cave in 1843 without a lamp. He was never heard of 
again. Visitors and cave guides tell of hearing her voice as she roams the 
passages calling for her lost love. 

In some telling of the tale (and it WAS Mammoth Cave, after all) she contracted 
consumption. Her mysterious voice (as heard in the cave) has her doleful 
refrain interrupted by fitful coughing. 

If you would like a 2 page PDF file with more details, write to
