"The Highwayman's Legacy", for example, was a result of listening to Loreena McKennitt's cover of the poem by Alfred Noyes while on a 'ghost-tour', and a conversation with a friend that can be summed up as "well, yeah, being able to see ghosts would be cool, but how much of a pain would it be if you couldn't filter them out?"
