A week without highlights would be un-bear-able, so let’s get to it! 

• We’ll kick our week off with yet another wonderful giveaway hosted by simgirl1010​ for the two upcoming Creator Kits - Modern Retreat & Garden to Table. There are two codes for each kit up for grabs, and you’ll have until the 11th to enter. These Kits will be available starting November 13th, so be sure to get your entries in for this giveaway, and best of luck to everyone! 🤞🤞🤞
  
  
• Up next, we have a western themed compound, Fort Hothead Rock, created by Bonxie_MCCC​. This rustic estate includes a spacious country style kitchen, sleeping space for up to 8 Sims, a large inner courtyard with a working windmill, and of course, plenty of stable space for all your horses. This versatile fort can be used as a home base for your new ranch, a western style retreat, or even a survival Getaway challenge! So if you’re looking to embrace your inner cowpoke, this fort is the perfect place for you! 🤠🌵
  
  
• Let’s wind down the spooky season with a horror story collab by GamingSimmer20​ called The Song of St. Dymphna. This mysterious story follows Simone Carter as she tries to uncover the secrets of her beloved grandmother’s death. But as she explores the asylum where her grandmother lived, she finds more than she ever expected - ghostly nurses, a lingering melody, and a haunting past that she can’t escape. So will she be able to uncover the truth about her grandmother and escape the same fate? Be sure to check out this ghoulish gameplay story to find out! 🏚️😱👻
  
  
• A couple weeks ago, we highlighted a Halloween Tiny Builds Challenge, and this week soocoolsim​ has given us quite a treat with a video showcase of all the entries! From a magical farmer’s market, a creepy cave, to terrifying townhouses, these tiny builds are all equally unique and impressive. So if you’re not ready just yet to give up on the spooky season, you’ll definitely want to check out these spook-tacular builds! 🦇🌆🪄
  
  
• And to finish our week off, iamawesomest123​ is currently looking for a new Celebrity themed save file to dive into. Think luxury, modern, big city vibes with a music producer baddy and her successful influencer roommate. So if you’ve got any recommendations for a save file that fits the bill, or you want to share your own, be sure to tell us about it! 🎤🎹⭐

And that’s a wrap for another exciting week! As always- I hope you have a wonderful weekend, stay safe and happy Simming 💚

Till next time!
