The Black Rider (or as in German the 'Freischütz') is
an old german (or even other cultures ??) legend about
a hunter possessing one infallible bullet. this bullet
was created by the hunter at a certain date at midnight
at mass while aiming at a communion wafer (?) without
shooting. After that he had to cut a cross in the
bullet. Rather eerie story.... but this is where Carl
Maria von Weber got his inspirations.

Hope this helps, sorry for the rather poor translation,
it's bloody too late to do translators work :)
