Blue Moon Potions, Potables and Ponderings
Ah, welcome weary traveler to my humble establishment. What is this place, you say? Look around and observe. This is my little spot for the fantasy, supernatural and sci-fi simmer. Do you need advice...

Another alternative if you have a lot of Satisfaction points is just buying the Paranormal Investigator License from the Rewards store for 3,000 satisfaction points. This will let you start doing gigs immediately even without any Medium skill.
I wouldn’t recommend going this route the first time you try the career, as you miss out on the story and learning how things works, but it is an option and sometimes it can be fun when you want to play a character who have no idea what they are doing and are forced to learn (and maybe fail) on the job.
Thank you for that. I actually thought you had to buy that in order to play it, so I'm really glad I just checked the forum before playing. I like story driven play so I definitely prefer that. :smile:
I enjoy that as well :) And all you need to do to get the story started is change your sims lot to “Haunted House Residential”. After a night or two you will have a friendly ghost guide show up that you can socialize with and ask questions. You can also ask him about Paranormal Investigators and he will tell you what you need to do to get a license. Then you just ask him again after you have done it.
One last thing:
If you decide to live in the Duplantier Dwelling that came with the Paranormal pack you will have all the things you need for a Paranormal Investigator to be. I think it is a really great home and have added it to some of my games. And it might also be fun to read the description for the house as it adds a bit of lore (as do the different build & buy objects if you like reading those).
But if you decide to use a home you already have and change it to “Haunted House Residential” then I would suggest that you buy two things to your home: The “Séance Table” and a “Helping Hand”. These objects allow you to either skill up your Medium skill and handle the spiritual difficulty of your haunted house or change the haunting difficulty to hard mode if that is what you prefer.
Happy haunting!
