I'm glad I read this! I was contemplating buying Strangerville just to see what it was like. Absolutely not if this is happening. I'm a somewhat "realistic" player and I have an imagination of my own. The last thing I want is some weird developer-created storyline insinuating itself in the lives of my sims.

To be honest, I'm a very realistic player and won't buy vampires and use mccc to get rid of all ghosts and aliens, I also only like my own storylines normally so I never play premade townies only sims I create, but for some reason I really really really love the strangerville pack haaha.

And from another comment I now suspect the "glitch" is because I have started the storyline with another Sim in this save file. It still shouldn't be happening though, this Sim is not related nor has he met any of the affected Sims and they do not live in Strangerville and haven't left their homes yet as they were newly created Sims so def. hadn't met anyone in Strangerville even in their hometown. Definitely a glitch but probably what triggered the glitch. It's my 2nd time going through the story because I loved it so much the first time haha!

@Thunderbat87 I have repaired it yes, but it's still happening. I'm not too concerned, I'll just have the Sims finish the story, I wanted to do it again anyways.

If any sim in a save is working on the story line, it's not a glitch to have these things happen. The game plays all households at the same time, even when you are only in one active household. So if you have 4 households, they all experience Christmas, even if you are only with Family C during Christmas. It's the same rules for the strangerville mystery. Even though Family B (example) is the one doing the mystery, it is happening in this saves universe, so it will transfer to all sims in the save until the mystery is solved.
