same here on XB1, first and second gig worked fine but after that no more specters and very little spawning of cursed objects.
Question for everyone that has this issue:
- Have you tested a different Sim to see if they get the same issue ?
- Is your Sim some kind of occult ?
- Did you ever send the Sim to a job on their own ?

My Sim was a Spellcaster, I hadn't ever sent her to work alone, and haven't tested another Sim in the same file. I tested the same Sim, living on the same lot, same world, etc. in a new save file and after 10 nights of the career she was still able to have specters and cursed objects spawn correctly.
- crinrict5 years agoHero+@SnowieSimmer I tested another Sim in your save and that worked fine but I only went on one gig. Maybe it's connected to the career advancement.
Was your Sim in the other save also an occult ?- SnowieSimmer5 years agoSeasoned Ace@crinrict The Sim in my other save was a spellcaster, yeah. I didn't have the issue pop up until my Sim in the save I sent had been to 4-5 gigs, the first few were fine.
- 5 years ago@SnowieSimmer My first sim, that seemed to work fine, was a spellcaster, the second one that had this issue was a CAS made vampire

I havent tested with a different sim yet.
My paranormal invest is a spellcaster and I never send her to work alone (should I maybe try that?).

I have not tested this with another sim but I have this bug with my spellcaster. I've never sent her to work alone. Around the third time I went with her to work no haunted objects would spawn.

I have 2 sims of the same household. The first sim I joined the paranormal career seem to work fine up to this date. But when i send the second sim out on a gig Specters doesn't show up and i don't finish the job.

So before finding this thread I did a bit of testing. I have three saves with sims actively working the paranormal career, two of them the lots load fine for the career the third it doesn't. The one that doesn't I tried starting fresh with a different sim and it was the same problem. So it seems that once the issue starts in a save it stays in that save. Now for the one that is NOT working, she is a normal sim, the second one I tried was a vampire. In the two that are working, I think they actually were both spellcasters. Also, I don't know that it makes a difference, but the ones that are working Strangerville was completed, the one that is not it was NOT completed until after I started the paranormal career. Oh, and the ones that are working they had the brave trait, while the one that is not they did not have it. Don't know if these details make a difference or not but these are things that I know are different from the saves that are working. Almost forgot your last question, I have never sent any of my sims by themselves for the paranormal career.

1. Not yet.
2. He's a werewolf.
3.
Not yet. I did*.I will try the suggestions, in the meantime, I did 3 gigs, one easy, one medium and one difficult.
The first two I completed by eliminating the cursed objects, although they appeared very slowly, and by having a séance. The more difficult one I had to do more than one séance, but I was also forced to extend the night's work, otherwise I couldn't do it. In the third case Temperance also appeared, and I called Bonhilda to send her away.
At the moment I only miss the spectres, which have never appeared since the first gig.* EDIT: After sending my sim on his own once, the next active gig had spawn spectres, only once though.
