Mentioned by others but in short, as stated by Michael Poulsen, "This is a fictitious story about a young couple who are flirting with spiritual cards and ouija boards to get in contact with spirits or demons or something from another dimension. Somehow, they make contact with some ghouls through some tombstones from the 18th century, and they end up selling their souls to The Nameless One. Suddenly, they wake up in the 1800s, inside a casket, and an outlaw ghoul is crashing their casket with his cane. He pulls the couple up and says, ‘You’re on your way to The Nameless One, you have a deal…’, and he takes them along with his riders. On the next album, you’ll find out who The Nameless One is."
