Background

Samantha "Sam" is a member of the Midnight Society. She is friends with Betty Ann.

During the events of Are You Afraid of the Dark?: Season 3 Episode 3 The Tale of Watcher's Woods played by Joanna Garcia

During a thunderstorm, Betty Ann is waiting by the fire with Sam, who has a bag over their head. Tucker tells Sam that their story better be good, because they are going to get electrocuted and Kiki asks who the mystery guy she keeps hearing about. Betty Ann takes the bag off of Sam's head and Tucker realizes Sam is a girl. Sam says her real name is Samantha, but her friends call her Sam. Frank introduces himself and flirts with Sam and Sam tells him to call her Samantha. Gary walks up to Sam and says she is perfect and then stammers and says for the Midnight Society. Sam says she understands the rules and Betty Ann wishes her luck. Sam tells the others she has lots of stories she could have told but picked on that fit the setting. She continues that there are tons of ancient legends about the woods, legends of spirits like the Manitou or Wendigo, but whatever happened to these spirits when people came to hack down their world. Many moved on, but some say the truly evil ones clung to their homes with hearts full of revenge for all who dare disturb their home. She then starts her tale.

Sam says it was Sarah's first time at Camp Grindlestone and she was a super achiever and earned every medal a Trail Maker could earn but was so busy with activities she didn't have time to make friends. Kelly on the other hand had been to Grindlestone, but hated it. She had tons of friends at home and really didn't want to be there.

Sam ends her tale and she is welcomed into the Midnight Society.

During the events of Are You Afraid of the Dark?: Season 3 Episode 4 The Tale of the Phone Police played by Joanna Garcia

Frank arrives while most of the other members of the Midnight Society are waiting and asks who is telling a tale? Betty Ann says it is Tucker's turn and Kiki asks Gary where Tucker is at. Frank gets upset that Tucker isn't there yet, but Gary says Tucker is there. A phone starts ringing and Sam asks if she is missing something. Gary pulls out a cellphone and answers the call, and Tucker is on the other line. Gary then places the phone and a speaker on the chair where normally the member tells the tale. Tucker tells the others that he is telling his tale that way, because the telephone is the scariest thing in your house as you can lock your doors and windows, but all someone has to do is dial your number and if you answer it, then they are inside. He then says when you answer the call you make a connection and it might be to a place that you don't want to be connected to. Tucker then starts his tale.

Tucker says Jake and Chris never made another prank call again, because they were never sure if the phone police were really real or if they could believe anything else they ever saw. Tucker sneaks up on Frank and yells the end, scaring Frank. Tucker dials Gary's phone again and the group jokingly runs to answer it and Gary ends the meeting.
