Versions
11 Ghosts II
This is the only known version. The track contains a sample of the "Songe d'une nuit de sabbat" (also known as "Dream of a witches' Sabbath") from the Classical-Romantic composer Berlioz's "Symphonie Fantastique". The sample is also, curiously, unaccredited. The song begins with an echoing guitar line with pulsing low strings and piano. An acoustic percussion beat plays, along with Berlioz samples. The song fades out with the guitar and strings played quieter, with quiet static effects added.
Live
"11 Ghosts II" has never been played live.
Differences in Artwork
It should be noted that much of the artwork embedded in the files of the official download of Ghosts I–IV from nin.com are not just cropped versions of the photographs in the PDF. In this case, the two photographs are completely different.
