The ONLY occult or supernatural we have in Sims 4 is the Vampire. Look up the meaning of the words ( Occult and Supernaturals) and query if either ghosts or aliens fall under the definition of either. They do not.
I'm sort of just guessing what occult means from other peoples replies here as it's not a term I've heard of before. :D
It means the science of magic basically.
Well if we want to get precise the word occult originated from Middle English and means "to keep secret, conceal". So aliens and ghosts could fall under such a definition.
The Oxford Dictionary which is British - calls Aliens sentient beings just as humans are but our planets differ.
Ghosts are called a stage of being after death or natural life has expired.
I also saw the definition of Occult/supernatural in both the British and American dictionaries that define those beings (Occults and Supernaturals) as capable of magic and the sciences of magic. Magic would be concealed or kept secret just by the history of human nature seeing how our past humans looked upon the practice of magic, never mind it's use. That's why it is associated with concealing and secrecy. But it is by all rights a science.
ETA -Hmmm makes me wonder would vampires even be considered an occult seeing they have attributes of Ghosts too. Confusing.
