Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. The June 2018 Seasons patch
The only thing that I saw that may be related aside from the June 2018 update, was at one point a vampire broke into the lots' home before I saved the game. Could that have made my lot haunted or cursed in some way? I tried looking online if that would be the case, but I can find nothing about it or cursed lots. I loaded an earlier game where the lot was not darkened and saved it before un-pausing it, and the lot looks normal on the neighborhood screen. This darkened lot happened after the June 2018 Seasons patch. Just wondering if this is June-2018-update related or vampire related..and how do I reverse it if the latter? Thanks if you can clear up my confusion here.
the large 50 x 50 lot (Oakenstead: upper left) is the lot that darkened
Just tested it again..the glitch happens when you exit the game and choose save and exit. This time I vampire proofed the home with garlic wreaths at all the entryways, and I did not even un pause the game before saving and exiting.
