You know I honestly think (and hope) that Sam was just overreacting when he mentioned Ghouls. Ghouls and zombies could easily pass off as one another, and not to mention we also have Revenants. However, this could most likely be due to writers being unable to foresee the concept of Eve (which is not really their fault, anyway). Before Eve was introduced, we had no problems about Samhain's powers. But when she arrived and established a separate hierarchy for monsters, that's when the problem arose. I suppose it's one of those 'are Shojos spirits or monsters?' thing (even the official companion describes the Shojo as spirits and monsters).
