| This retro payphone model from SCTC brings back the simple charm of bygone days when Sims needed loose change to make a phone call. It's even got the number of a local taxi service scratched into the tamper-resistant, nearly bulletproof enamel finish. | |

All community lots include a telephone (in the occupying place of the mailbox on residential lots by default) with an outdoor garbage bin next to it. Additional ones can be bought from buy mode under "Electronics".
The object serves as an essential device to return home or visit another lot. A player can command a Sim to "Call a Taxi" or "Walk to Lot"; which interaction is available depends on the method the Sim/household arrived to the community lot after leaving home. Sims that arrive by car must leave that lot using their car, and cannot call for a taxi or walk off the lot. Playable witches and warlocks can choose to fly to a community lot by broom, while non-playables will do so autonomously; said Sims will always arrive by the telephone booth.
With Bon Voyage, Sims that witness the Unsavory Charlatan robbing another Sim (or are robbed by him themselves) can use the phone to "Report Foul Play" to notify police about the Charlatan. This will keep the Charlatan at bay for a few days, but he will return eventually.

| It is a common misconception that portals are a recent achievement from the world of science. In fact, magical portals have been in use for thousands of years! And no name is more trusted in the field of instantaneous magical relocation than the LLAMA. Take your LLAMA to work, to the grocery store, or even to your best friend's house. You'll never be late when you're riding a LLAMA. | |

The Lightning Leap Atomic Molecular Arranger (also known as LLAMA) is a new mode of transportation in The Sims 3: Supernatural. It resembles a phone booth / box with a word written in Simlish along the top. Similar to the Subway system in Bridgeport, the LLAMA has the ability to transport Sims from one location to another in a few seconds, regardless of distance.
This item appears to be a reference to the TARDIS (Time And Relative Dimension In Space) from the long-running British science fiction television program Doctor Who.
Usage
Firstly, there has to be at least 2 LLAMAs in the world in order for them to function. Players can select to travel in a LLAMA, and then select any lot within the world that also contains a LLAMA. After making that choice, the Sim will enter the LLAMA, after which the box hovers and the top opens up, revealing a circular spinning device that glows. The Sim will disappear and reappear at the chosen destination LLAMA in 2–3 seconds, regardless of how far apart the LLAMAs are.
Tips & Warnings
- Players are able to name the LLAMA however they want, but this does not affect anything but the name that shows up on the selection screen.
- Using the LLAMA often can result in a negative "Nauseous", or "Terrified" moodlet, or worse, a "Tragic Clown" moodlet which lasts for 24 hours, gives the victimized Sim a clown appearance, and gives all Sims near the affected Sim an "It's Just So Tragic" moodlet.
