Forum Discussion
The most fun I had with this pack was when I was playing a private school dorm and a maid died on the property.
I decided that little incident would result in a haunted lot.
The Grim Reaper is a very, very busy being. So many souls, so much time.
I was playing my Uni prep-school dorm when the dishwasher and sink broke at the same time.
The maid had arrived first and the repair person arrived a little later. The maid was mopping up the mess from both objects, blocking the repair person, who was complaining.
Eventually the maid mopped up enough water to allow the repair person to fix the objects.
The maid then returned to the spot and started having a fit.
Okay, let's wrap this bit of opportunistic game play up.
My sims are prepping for Uni here, and while entertaining, these spirits are really making it difficult.
There is nothing like a night of terror to bring your sims together.
I love the flickering slights.

And then...
Dead.
This is your fault.
If you hadn't been harassing her about being in your way, she wouldn't have popped a major blood vessel.
Way to show some remorse there, Zane.
That changes when Grim shows up.
This is the first time I had an NPC die on a residential lot.
We get an urn?
I'll put it in the greenhouse for now.
Cassandra Goth isn't going to allow a chance to chat with Grim to pass by.
He says he's a bit of a Geek and dislikes the color black.
But he just says that so people won't accuse him of being Emo.
And this is when I decided this lot is going to be haunted.
There is a precedent now, and I like the idea of a haunted school.
I didn't think it would start right away however.
What an interesting day at Smuggsworth Prep.
They also had two visitors from the Britechester Dorm.
Briceida Cuevas, the one in the red dress, was the best dormie ever.
She was the source of several entertaining moments while at Uni.
The School Administrator and School Counselor arrive.
You finally have a real problem to manage here, buddy.
The maid showed up the first night for some haunting.
Oh, she's an angry ghost.
That, on top of the other things that will start happening around here, should be interesting.
Meadow Thayer ran to her bedroom.
The angry ghost spent quite a bit of time trying to calm her anger.
She kept failing and seemed to be getting angrier.
She eventually calmed down.
But that didn't stop her from breaking the sink.
I am imagining her wanting the repair person to come back, so she can scare her to death. >:)
She struck up a conversation with a happy spirit on the balcony.
The whole building was startled awake:
Cassandra tried to bribe them into going away.
I forgot that they only wanted handcrafted items.
So she tried a ceremony.
She's a spell caster and skilled up quickly.
But it was interrupted and only made things worse.
One of the spirits must have dropped this goblet.
Zane picked it up and drank the contents.
I put it in the trophy case because it was worth 200 Simoleons.
I should have sold it right away because someone must have taken it and tossed it in the dishwasher, never to be seen again.
I set Meadow to work, knitting up some handcrafted offerings.
They were meh about her knitted cap.
I gave them two more and they decided to leave before she gave them another crappy cap.
We might need more of those.
After knitting, Meadow went to morn at the dead maid's urn.
There was an interaction that would summon one of those Day of the Dead celebrators.
This was new to me, so I gave it a try.
And there she is.
I found that Meadow could ask her for a sugar skull.
She was far off and walking away from the prep-school dorm.
This calls for a bike.
Oh look, it's thatsecret society sprite cult.
Darn it!
She's gone.
It's okay. Cassandra will summon up another one.
There you are!
"Hey kid, can I have one of those Sugar skulls?"
"..."
"Please?"
"..."
"Pretty please?"
"No!"
"Well, fine! I don't have time for this.
The sun is about to rise."
Wow, this was an all-nighter.
The teens are heading off for school.
And how long had this been here?
Things are about to get worse.

The School's administrator and counselor are out of their element with this situation.
They turn to Cassandra who loves this spooky stuff.
This is great, it brings a change of pace to my education game play.
The haunting continues and Cassandra is worn out from it all.
It seems to be escalating:
Yeah, it's getting bad when Guidry shows up.
Cassandra gives him a greeting before going to bed.
Nami is too terrified to do anything about these creepy rock hands.
Gamma shows her how it's done.
You too!
Gamma helps calm her down.
Ms. Hopkins gives it a try.
Only making it worse.
Cassandra is their only hope.
Time to potion up.
A sleep replacement and a confidence potions and she is good to go.
Plus some help from Guidry.
That was a good session.
Now for some clean up work.
Uhm... better leave that one alone.
She doesn't have the energy for another ceremony.
But she can bring in a heavy hitter for the mess around here.
Bonehilda!
They get a break from terror.
The teens are at classes and the Uni students are tutoring students while they wait to return for their final two semesters.
It's time to wrap this up.
Cassandra has maxed the Medium skill.
"Did that do it? Are we done? Are they gone? Is it over?"
I love that animation.
Yes, it's over for you guys.
Cassandra maxed the skill and the lot is peaceful.
All that remains is to send this spirit back to the other side.
And reset the lot type back to plain old Residential.
There was plenty more to do, but I need to get back to playing University.
This was a fun diversion.
