Traditional folk rock band Blackmore’s Night’s songs are written by singer Candice Night, her husband Ritchie Blackmore, and… an Eastern-European ghost?
In a June 2025 interview with The Rock N’ Blues Experience podcast, the iconic musician revealed how she and her famous husband became the owners of a special piano that later turned out to be haunted, according to her. “The first time I went down to play it, I looked up and I saw a reflection behind me of a man standing there in a jacket with a hat, and I thought ‘Oh Ritchie came to hear what I’m doing,'” she recalled. However, he had disappeared by the time she finished playing. When she went upstairs to see why he didn’t say anything to her, he claimed he’d been sitting on the couch the entire time.
