98. Lore & Legends | The Haunting of the Banff Springs Hotel
Manage episode 487751533 series 3520655
In the heart of Banff National Park, where the Canadian Rockies rise in jagged splendor, the Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel stands as a monument to both grandeur and mystery. Known as the "Castle of the Rockies," this Scottish baronial masterpiece, with its limestone turrets and oak-paneled halls, has welcomed travelers since 1888. For Sam McCauley, a bellman whose warm smile and lilting Scottish accent have greeted guests for decades, the hotel is more than a workplace—it’s a home, a sanctuary, and a keeper of secrets. Yet, beneath its opulent surface lies a darker history, one woven with tales of tragedy that have left spectral imprints on its stones. From a bride’s fatal fall to a child’s lost laughter, the hotel’s hauntings are as iconic as its architecture, and Sam’s journey through these events binds him to the Castle’s eternal soul.
Macabrium is produced by Macabrium Creative and hosted by Megan Alda and Derek Stephen Brown, with writing and research by Chloë Kibbe, Megan Alda and Derek Stephen Brown.
