Hi, I thought it might be nice to start a thread specifically about the style and type of builds players will be creating or be looking for to play with the new paranormal pack in mind. I feel extremely honoured as my friend and lovely DNA team member @AIRIS6962 has agreed to make me a massive 64x64 lot that i wish to incorporate all that lovely new paranormal content into and play different supernatural sims including the new paranormal style sims when the pack releases. I thinks it's going to bea good mix :) This is the style I am going for mainly vamp style with an interior using purples and some rooms/areas specifically made for paranormal sims. I would love to see pics and hear about other players ideas for the new pack..https://i.imgur.com/JlcddeC.png

I'm going to be building the house from the 1980s horror film Poltergeist. It's a good floorplan and it's easy to fit in a 30x20 lot as it's not very large. I'll be sharing it hopefully in this very thread when I'm finished with it. I'm going to rewatch the movie and try to match as much of the house as visible with game items.

Hi @Kerrigan I look forward to seeing that. I just google searched and there appears to be some basic house/floor plans people have put online if you want to take a look at the following link..http://www.poltergeist.poltergeistiii.com/cuestaverde.html

I recently built this abandoned church. I built it with Vampires and Realm of Magic but will give it an upgrade once the new pack comes out. This is the church:https://i.imgur.com/t8rcLVe.pngThe lot is residential and has a "hideout" for occult sims in the basement. This is the staircase to the hideout: Spoiler (Highlight to read)https://i.imgur.com/vQ3giD5.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/vQ3giD5.pngThe kitchen: Spoiler (Highlight to read)https://i.imgur.com/PUGPOST.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/PUGPOST.pngThe living room:Spoiler (Highlight to read)https://i.imgur.com/a5mV1wH.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/a5mV1wH.pngA bedroom (with a bathroom):Spoiler (Highlight to read)https://i.imgur.com/xajjA2G.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/xajjA2G.pngAnd a vampire lair with coffins: Spoiler (Highlight to read)https://i.imgur.com/OED6FUu.pnghttps://i.imgur.com/OED6FUu.pngI'll probably turn this into a haunted church and put in a seance table and other new stuff from the pack.

There's just so many Vampire houses around. That's all well and good when you're rebuilding in Forgotten Hollow but it can get samey.So I'm looking in the gallery for houses with basement and attics, and rewalling them and rearranging the attics and basements. When the pack comes out, hopefully 'Gigs' will have my Medium exploring the whole house.Sometimes you can make a normal house a lot scarier just by changing carpet and wallpaper, or adding a few cracks or cobwebs. Sometimes you just have to change the windows and curtains.I also downloaded an Amityville rebuild - there's a a lot of them.

The build is called Abandoned church hideout. Yeah I recently started reusing the Gallery too. I only follow people I know in real life or from the forums, 'cause I know they're gonna be nice people.

Lets see/hear about the type of builds you intend to make for the new paranormal pack

I think i need more info on pack features and see everything first but there is most likely going to be seance room and bonehilda added(and summoned) to my existing spoopy mansion

haunted lot type maybe

also new wallpaper is super pretty so yes that is being added everywhere probably

might add seance table to magic HQ should i one day get to rebuilding/editing it

aaand yeah. i think once i get to rebuilding granite falls into magic town 2.0 there is going to be some seance tents and stuff there too

+ some witch houses get some additions too

These look so cool!

I’m planning to make a Residential lot in Forgotten Hollow that’s a cemetery with real tombstones that has a house in the back, away from the road through some trees.

I’m thinking gothic-style house using whatever new items we get, with a “secret” basement (bookcase door) that hides a satanic church with separate crypt rooms for vampire coffins. It sounds vampire-y, but I’ll have my ghost Sims live there.

Is there a bookcase door? ?
