Locked out of your room? Need help with your bags? Maybe you'll be lucky enough to have Sam, one of the friendly ghosts of the Banff Springs Hotel, help you.
Sam McAuley supposedly died in 1976, and loved the hotel so much he said he would return after his death, which some believe is true. Some guests have had encounters with him, always having the description of an elderly man in an old-fashioned uniform. He has been known to let locked out guests into their rooms, get guests to certain floors, perform wake-up calls, help guests with their luggage, all before the guests can give him a tip.
