Trivia[]

  • The Black Knight is the very first monster of the Scooby-Doo franchise, first appearing in the very beginning.
  • It's been a real mystery if the Black Knight Ghost really was Mystery Inc's very first mystery. In Scooby-Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed, Fred declared that the Black Knight Ghost was their very first case. However, in the TV show A Pup Named Scooby-Doo, which shows that Scooby and his friends having solving mysteries since they were little, the first monster that they unmasked was the Green Goo Monster. Plus Chickenstien, a monster from that show is in the film too. Also in the 2009 live-action film Scooby-Doo! The Mystery Begins; the first mystery they solved in high school was a ghost which was their principal in disguise. Not to mention in What a Night For a Knight, Fred say; "It look like we have another mystery on our hands." It is possible that the Black Knight Ghost was one of their first cases. Or perhaps it references how What a Night for a Knight (his original appearance), was the first production of the Scooby-Doo franchise.
  • In the original Scooby-Doo animated series, the Black Knight's user was only given the name Mr. Wickles. For the live adoption, he is given the first name Jeremiah.
  • There is a Lego version of the Black Knight Ghost, along with Lego versions of The Phantom and the Vampire from "A Gaggle of Galloping Ghosts".
