So I love the idea and the gameplay for the most part with the Paranormal pack, but is anyone else getting frustrated with how easily their sims get "terrified" and can't do anything? I've failed multiple paranormal investigator jobs because of this, even using the sacred candles. Again, the pack is SOOOOOOO COOOOOOOL but this little hiccup has me frustrated. Anyone else?

I used to have that happen. But I figured out how to beat the specters.
If you've maxed your Medium Skill, sit down around 8:30 pm and perform a Ghastly Ritual. Specters won't bother another ghost.
Make sure to bring along some food. Specters (for the most part) love Selvadoran Grilled Cheese Ready to Eat. My Sim maxed her Selvadoran Culture skills, so she can buy it by the carload from the "Secret Goods" at the tables. Otherwise, just pack a couple of plates of food to dish out.
If your specter accepts your offering, they'll leave. You can whittle down a herd of specters pretty quickly, and each one gives you more progress than just kicking a doll or mopping a slimer.
You've gotta work fast. Once you turn human again you can get Terrified. If that happens, try making a Sacred Circle, or, if you've got the time, go jogging.
I've got it down to where she can go in, wipe out the haunting, and be home before she changes back.
