History
Season 1
Life in the Ghost Lane
After emerging from Dwayne and Joey's ghost bikes, Samuel shot the highway bridge in order to get the Ghost Hunters off his tail. However, Douglas and Spencer were able to go through the destroyed bridge to capture Samuel, but only for Douglas to take a picture of him instead. Before Samuel could shoot Douglas, Jack and Parker stopped him and Samuel was pulled into Jack's phone.
Season 2
Grave Situation
Samuel Mason was one of the Ghosts freed from Jack's phone by Lady E. Once free, Samuel attacked Jack and called him a coward when he had to hide behind a gravestone. When Jack declares that he won't join them, Samuel and the other ghosts try to kill him until Vaughn G. Jackson arrives, hits the ghosts with his car and saves Jack.
The Lighthouse, Part 1
Samuel Mason, along with Dr. Drewell, Mamali, and Harry Cane, come out of a portal next to the Fatal Reef Lighthouse. Lady E. comes towards her minions and congratulates them for a job well done. She reveals that the Hidden Side can be revealed with one thing, which happened to be the souls of these four ghosts. Samuel's soul was absorbed by Lady E. and used to open portals connecting the Hidden Side to the Living Side.
Appearance
Samuel, like most other boss ghosts, has a Lego big-fig appearance. He wears a typical wild-west bandit outfit with a vest, a shirt, a pair of gloves, a bandana covering his mouth, and a cowboy hat. John, on the other hand, has the appearance of a regular lego minifigure. He has a long coat instead of a vest.
Most often, Samuel is seen with two six-shot revolvers, while John is seen with a lasso. In the show, however, neither of them has any of their weapons.
Abilities
Soul Shot (App)
Mason can prepare a powerful long-range shot that can hit multiple times when he fires at a target again.
Gloom
Mason, like all Ghosts, can throw balls of Gloom on his enemies to harm them or to haunt buildings or objects.
Possession
Mason, like all Ghosts, can possess Humans and turn them into Gloombies.

Trivia
- He is a member of the Anger Ghosts.
- Despite working for her, he is one of the seven Boss Ghosts from seasons 1 and 2 who have no indicated connections to Lady E.
- The others are The Bawa, Spewer, Tragico, Harry Cane, Rat Shaun, and Joe Ishmael.
- He is so far the only Human Ghost who is fused with another Human Ghost.
- He is apparently responsible for Alice's death, as her bio in the app game states that she encountered Mason while jogging through the Newbury highway.
- He is the third Boss Ghost to be defeated and the second one to be captured by the Ghost Hunters before the Battle of Newbury High School.
- He is one of the four ghosts whose soul was absorbed by Lady E. in "The Lighthouse, Part 1".
- In "Life in the Ghost Lane," he uses his fingers as guns instead of the ones he is seen using in the app game and in official artwork, perhaps to make the franchise more family-friendly.
- This is rather strange as his Soul Artifact, the Six-Shooter, does make an appearance in the episode.
