==Official description==
Line 28:

==New features==
===[[Haunted house residential|Haunted Houses]]===
This pack features a new lot type under residential lots called a "Haunted House". This is different to the spooky lot trait in that haunted houses have a host of additions coming from specters who regularly appear at night, specters at first will be friendly and will start have their moods lowered when not interacted with for a long while or failures when contacting them. When the ghosts do get sad or angry, Sims living in the house will get scared more often and possibly be attacked by mischievious specters. Sims can ask for help from [[Claude René Duplantier Guidry]] on how to deal with specters and how to have an easier time living with specters.
===[[Paranormal Investigator]]===
This is similar to the [[Ghost hunter]] [[profession]] introduced in ''[[The Sims 3: Ambitions]]''. Sims who are skilled mediums can also acquire a liscencelicense to become a paranormal investigator and exorcise unwanted specters from other homes. This comes in three difficulty settings and involves multiple ways of trying to get rid of specters. After completing the gigs, Sims will earn money and sometimes spooky gifts that can help with specters of their own.
 
===Bonehilda===
Sometimes living in a haunted house, playful specters will cause messes or evenmake areSims too scared to cook food, this can be solved by Sims summoning Bonehilda to help cater for the house and prepare food, becomingmaking her a no-charge-needed maid. When she's done sheSims can bebefriend aher friendand to the Sims of the household andhang hangoutout with themher.
