Kaspar the Cat fights Evil
Strand Hotel's lucky cat that keeps Evil spirits at bay
Location: Savoy Hotel, The Strand
Description: The Savoy Hotel has a superstition regarding the number of guests at dinner.
If there are thirteen then a wooden carved cat named Kaspar is given a setting alongside the guests wearing a white knapkin around his neck and a saucer of milk placed before him.
This takes the guest count to fourteen and keeps evil forces at bay.
