Elf House

I haven't built one yet to confirm this, but according to tstoaddicts the elves cover a limited space like the Ghost Zapper for Halloween, so if your town is large you either have to move it around or buy several to cover your entire town.

I decided to follow a couple elves around today and in my town they definitely have no limit in their radius because they went everywhere!

Also, in response to another query, they do generate gifts/ cards on their own if they don't find any... I saw this multiple times. So, getting more than one is worth something, even if having only one will cover your entire town, which it seems to.
