The Ghosthunter career will appear in the upcoming expansion pack for The Sims 3, Ambitions.

Sims use various machines to trap or ward off ghosts, similar to the Ghostbusters film franchise.

Ghosts and lesser spirits will randomly appear in occupied houses around neighbourhoods such as Twinbrook. It is possible that these ghosts will constitute a new category of NPC or Townie. [1] Ghosthunters must deal with several different types of investigations and paranormal activity in order to advance.

Types of Paranormal Activity

Lesser Spirits

Lesser spirits are the least powerful of all paranormal activity. Lesser spirits resemble wispy Halloween ghosts. They come in many colors, but they are all the same regardless of color.

Poltergeists

Poltergeists possess random objects, causing them to move and fly around. Poltergeists are not very powerful, but they are stronger than lesser spirits.

Ghosts

Ghosts are the most powerful of all paranormal activity. They are very hard to capture, but ghosthunters may alternatively attempt to befriend a ghost and convince them to move on.

Occasional, ghosthunters may encounter ghosts from past civilizations. These ghosts are worth more money when sold to the science lab.

Types of Investigations

Spirit Invasions

Spirit Invasions are the most basic of hauntings. Lesser spirits are much less powerful than full bodied ghosts, and are visible at all times. Ghosthunters need only use the ghost vacuum to remove the lesser spirits. If the spirit manages to escape the ghost vacuum, they will scare any non-brave sim.

Paranormal Investigation

Occasionally, a ghosthunter will be asked to investigate a random rabbit hole. The ghosthunter need only enter the venue and stay for a few hours to complete this investigation.

After the ghost has been located, the ghosthunter can attempt to capture it. Alternatively, the ghosthunter may befriend the ghost and convince them to pass on.
