Italian prima donna opera singer from the 1892 novel Le Château des Carpathes (The Carpathian Castle) by author Jules Verne, better known for his pioneering sci-fi than this gothic-y, romantic-type stuff.

Freaked out by a stalker who goes to all her shows (Baron de Gortz), La Stilla accepts the marriage proposal of Romanian Count Franz de Telek, but dies onstage singing [Arconti]]'s Orlando.

Later at the Baron's creepy castle, Telek thinks he hears her singing.
