I have been thinking about to integrate this pack into my story which involves occults. Are you all going to create new characters for this new pack or expand on your current characters stories? I'd love to hear your ideas. Feel free to share your stories, sims, and builds.
So far I know I want to make a Black Selvadoradian spellcaster as my main sim. She'll have a "witchy" shop where she sells herbal remedies, potions and flowers. She'll have a haunted home she'll inherit from her aunt. That's about as far as I've gotten but I know I want her to live in Willow Creek.
https://i.imgur.com/U4n0PVT.png Violet Bellwood has experience dealing with ghosts. Her family traveled the country; her mother worked as a fortuneteller and her dad as an exorcist. She would contact ghost and get them to haunt people, so her mother could warn the people and recommend the dad for an exorcism. Compared to the rest of the group, she has the most knowledge about ghosts. But she's more interested in living in the house and becoming an eccentric reclusive painter.
https://i.imgur.com/7lCGvTL.png Hazel Grimwood is from a nouveau riche, but obscure spellcaster family from Glimmberbrook. She abandoned her family's sophisticated ways, but she still has aspirations of striking it rich. She wants to fix up the house and live in luxury, making her own label of Juice.
https://i.imgur.com/3nPlKpl.png Lyanna Bordeaux is the child of spellcasters, but she was born without magical abilities. Nevertheless, she has an interest in the occult and wants to speak with the ghosts. Her goal is to turn the house into a museum, acting as its curator.
https://i.imgur.com/qVNXLZU.png Hunter Stellar is the son of one of the twins in my Snowy Escape playthrough. He's an accomplished spellcaster who wants to take over his father's restaurant one day. Having grown up poor, he's determined to buy the haunted house and fix it up. No ghosts will stop him from being a homeowner.
They're going to play through the pack's content. Once they're done, Hunter will buy the house and settle down with one or more of the women. (I'm looking at Violet or Hazel. Need help figuring out who to pick.) They'll end up living with ghosts and starting a long legacy of ghost-hunters.
Working on a character I'm placing to live in Forgotten Hollow, and going to give her the new Paranormal Investigator career, as well as probably live in a haunted house. Was thinking of making her refer to herself more as a "Spirit Seeker", someone who is drawn to the presences, and of course called when needed if there is any ghostly peril, haha.
I'm thinking about making a paranormal/occult save. Might make a paranormal investigator team, Dam and Sean Windcheater. Hmm, might make a rival team, Mully and Scolder, but they're government agents.
It's not really a 'story'but i will start a legacy-style game for this new pack. I have been playing in rotation in the latest times (before i went in a regular break mkre recently), but i think a legacy would go just fine with the haunted houses. The family moves to a haunted house and keeps living there, generation after generation. Will they be able to clean the house...? Will the evil be back after some generations off...?
I'm not even sure I wasn't expecting this at all lol. One thing is for sure though, my world is ready. I'm always playing apocalyptic and I have 3 haunted houses I already had anyway. I always continue each new pack with the same save and sims.
This is something I'll be using at every single turn. I want to make some of them haunted Halloween houses for spooky day that sims can visit and have fun. Then I'll probably turn my evil vampire houses haunted because it's so fitting. I don't think I'll follow a particular story based on this pack. It will just be features added to my current storylines.
FYI For anyone that wants fog, filling the basement with chimneys does the trick ?
My Selvadoradian spellcaster living in Glimmerbrook is just (w)itching to try out the new things coming in the Paranormal stuff pack! Her name is Verónica Puerta, and yes, I realise Puerta may not be a very common last name because it means "door" in Spanish, but that's the very reason I chose it: As a medium, she basically functions as a door, or can open doors between our world and the beyond. I created her last year, but haven't played with her a lot because... well, there wasn't really a way to translate my ideas into the game without playing pretend. Luckily, that's going to change now.
Other than that, I'm currently watching Supernatural, and I like it, so I may create the Winchester brothers sooner or later, and what better job is there for them than paranormal investigators?
