Sims 4 Paranormal Stuff - Summoning/Manifesting NPC Issue

 I have the "Paranormal Stuff" pack and first I was trying to summon Bonehilda (naturally I'm super excited to see her back). However, every time I summoned her, I was getting Tina Peeping instead! Like wtf?! (from the WW mod) That's a new level of peeping to peep so hard you come out of a rip in space and time and pretend to be the skeleton maid the summoner was expecting. Right?! So, when that happened, I figured I would turn off the Peeping Sims options all together to see if that fixed it. Well, this is were it goes from wrong to so right but still so incredibly wrong. This time when I went to summon Bonehilda, instead I got Kylo Ren! Who proceeded to roam around the house as the acting maid. Well, it didn't end there. I was finally about to meet the new NPC Guidry since I made my lot a haunted residential lot. I got the pop-up from Guidry and waiting to see him so I could beg him to use his spiritual connections for a bit of beyond the grave nepotism to land me the necessary paranormal investigator card. So, suspense up, I see the pinkish see-through specter appear and alas!!! It was Kylo Ren! Again!! This time in flirty spirit form and all he wanted to do was try to hook up with the teenage daughter. SO! Moral of the story, any idea what could be causing this? Or at least an ability to point me in the right direction because I honestly have no idea what to do. With this.

I have many, many, many mods with my game. I own every single Sims 4 expansion pack, stuff pack, etc. I have tried removing all mods to see if it would work but it still spawns the wrong NPC (i.e. Kylo Ren). It is kind of hysterical but the problem is that without Guidry, Kylo Ren doesn't have the correct talking options in order to get that paranormal investigator card. I know I can get it with skill points but, I'd rather have Guidry to explain more about the paranormal.

My game is up to date and I have tried repairing the game as well. If I do something like remove the Star Wars expansion pack, it just spawns another incorrect NPC.

Any ideas?

    I have only one idea now. Remove all scripts mods to test, delete localthumbcache..package file, and fix the game in Origin
    Origin /My games library - right-click on the cover of TS4 - option: Repair.
    Then check if you still have this error.
    If it will work paste your mods one by one into the mods folder every time checking if the game is working properly.

    Well, as I said in my first post, I had tried removing all mods and repairing the game already but still having issues.

    I have thousands of mods and I was reorganizing them the other day into a more detailed folder structure and after I did that, I started to get the correct NPCs. Of course now Kylo Ren is dating the teenage daughter but, that's neither here nor there.

    For now, it isn't an issue for me anymore however I'm still not sure exactly what caused it. I am sure it was a mod but then it makes no sense that I still had the issue with all mods removed. Very strange.
