HAHA the back porch just ignore that please while I question all my life decisions. I swear I was going to deal with it but probably ran out of time and forgot 😂 Thanks for touring my build James it’s an honour!
Love your creativity. I first saw you on Spark’d.
Hahaha, it’s ok, my starter in Snowy Escape has its problems 😬😂
I actually like the idea of a porch, that maybe once had a door into the kitchen, was lost when the modern kitchen was added. That happens a lot. So, it fits, especially in a haunted house!
I like what you did with the dolls, all sitting around and having tea, that is so cute!!
Me, who has a porch with just a bench on it in real life 😬
So proud of James for actually enjoying the item swatches that aren’t black or white! Character growth 😏
I can imagine the Sim Gurus making the swatches and being like "better not forget the black and white swatches for James" 😂
Black and white for James, a mini cowplant for Kayla and Bonehilda for Jesse. They wanted every game changer to like this pack 🤣😂

@@dundee6402 and what for vixella? Lmao
@@MonstehDinosawr Bruh why
@@stuffwithsoph8264 kkkkkk entendi foi nada
I did the math and research- Murphy beds were first patented in the US in 1911, and Guidry died in 1920 at the age of 37. He died of a Murphy bed incident (possibly due to faulty design of early production) and because he was a flirt, maybe it was a bit of a woohoo accident ?? I think I solved the case James !!
Lol amazing thanks!
Death by woohoo
The dahlia dolls he put down look like they were modeled off of the powerpuff girls !
With a splash of Coraline. ;)
Lalaloopsy dolls, too. Just larger. 😄
I was literally just like that the powerpuff girls whaaaaaattttt!!!! Lol
@@loraelstad8941 Oh, very good point! (And there are some baby-doll-sized Lalaloopsy so being larger makes sense too.) XD
I was just about to say that!
I'm so happy The Sims team have started working with Game Changers to do the builds. Such a great improvement, no more missing toilets :D I hope this is something they continue with.
You have really low expectations.
@@beatrixaltenberg5135 Hey, at least there's something to be happy about with this game...
Only missing bins if you let James build😂
@@JL-fd2ef I tend to forget bins too 😆
I didn’t realize there had been an update and my sim got “scared” yesterday and I thought I was hallucinating
kept me busy for like an hour xD
🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣
@@dianapotra2583 as far as i know there are only 3 emotions you can die from - the hysterical one and the bored one and another one i think
You can die from being Mortified (top level of Embarrassment), Enraged (top level of Anger), and Hysterical (top level of Playful). But I haven't played since the Update, so Scared may have a death possibility.
7:18 i think 'The Pictures of Darius Taupe' is definitely a reference to 'The Picture of Dorian Gray' (a fantastic gothic novel hehe) so maybe that's why it sounds familiar!
I’m feeling New Orleans voodoo witch vibes from these pieces 😍
@G knew it!!
exactly my thinking!
James: ah well, those colourful patterns aren't really useable in the long run Me, who makes every house she builds into an eccentric, colourful hippie home: uhm, sir
Please tell me you upload your builds to the gallery and what your gallery name is bc I’d love using that kind of style in my game!
@@spieterman3065 ouf I don't think they're good enough yet! (I only started building in TS4 about six months ago, but I was pretty good in TS2) and all of them are full of CC... So not comfortable with that for now :( But I will once I get better, promise!
Right! I think I’ll find a use for every item in this pack!
Bohemian, hippy, cottage, witch-style for every build for the win 🙋🏻♀️ I'm in love with these furnitures, wallpapers and decor
Yeah, thats something a lot of the gamer changers do. I think they forget not everyone likes neutral colors, or plain black and white. I'd much rather build something with bright colors. To each their own though.
Wait, did James just showed a batuu sofa without saying "Aaawwhh Batuuu!!! Yeeaahh!"? I'm disappointed.
I said it right when he showed the sofa. Lol
"He looks familiar..." Dude it's Johny Depp from the trailer!
It's totally Johnny!! And the cas items are totally his style!
That moment when James placed the baby high chair: Me: My First Seánce Pack! 🤣 Also, I get the similarities of the dolls to Powerpuff Girls, but they also remind me of larger Lalaloopsy dolls. 😁
This is why they need to bring the color wheel back
My mind immediately went to the Powerpuff Girls, as well. Especially placed together like that.
Rip the curtains I guess we’ll never know now
For some reason I have the overwhelming urge to redecorate Penny Pizzazz's apartment with this pack. Not to haunt her- I just feel like she has New Orleans style
The light blue armchair and sofa looks like CC
Wouldn’t surprise me if they used a CC item or two as a template design. I think they’ve done that for certain things in the past...?
@@BengtBagels I completely get it 😆 TS4 should have been this kind of quality from the start.
like most of this pack looks like it would be cc it looks like cc
@@krisb.1565 it was a stuff pack in sims 2 i think. they literally stole cc not even changed it. but that was befor it was owned by EA
Me still hoping sims releases: simple modern counters and cabinets that are clean and actually white.
Psst.... Mods! ... Your welcome
You should check out peacemaker on tumblr, his cc is amazing and he does the best kitchens
and check out harrie and felixandre sims
me: * I don't have any money * also me: proceeds to buy a stuff pack because of the couch 🤡
If this isn’t the most relatable thing ever
Guess we’re all a little 🤡🤡🤡
Same
Absolutely!
i like the gameplay
Loving the new trend of The Sims team getting well-known Sims builders to contribute lots with new packs. Huge improvement in quality and design, and gives some recognition (and moolah) to the amazing builders in the community.
I didn’t think anyone from the Sims Community helped make this pack? Did I miss something? 😆 EDIT: Nevermind, I just got to the point in the video where he talks about Dr. Ashley. I wish they had advertised the simmer content more, or that they had actually incorporated some of it into the game, like they did with Snowy Escape.
@@yaobikuni1349 ...and yet two bigshot GCs promoted the lesser-known GCs in their videos? Yeah that’s some real discrimination and hate right there.
@@yaobikuni1349 “BIPOC” is that some new American term?
@@bagelized ; it means "black indigenous, people of color" its just a simple means of referencing all three in one word
@@yaobikuni1349 Maybe in USAmerica it "has been around for years" and it's a "common usage" term >> No need to be pretentious about someone not knowing a foreign abbreviation (not really a word here) :^(
overwhelmed by simmers uploading their reviews of this new stuff pack at the exact same time 🤯
That's because a contract.
@@suan333 Yes of course, but it's still overwhelming
I like the idea of having a haunted house in a lay line. I mean there’s just always something creepy about having identical twins and triplets. Like maybe something paranormal is at the works. Like one might actually be possessed at birth. IDK its just my opinion.
ooooh that's a great idea
The statue of Horus is in reference to one of many Egyptian god's
Time for them to release a patch with the James Turner lights, like they did with those vases years ago 😁
lmao It's New Orleans style James
That’s what I thought when I saw it!
The way James said “Macramé” has me absolutely rolling
I was just about to comment that LMAO
I googled it and that’s how it said to say it 😂🤷🏻♂️
In the US, at least where I grew up, it's pronounced Mack-Ruh-May. 🙂
@@abicatlett7241 I know same it caught me off guard I was like wait what
@@abicatlett7241 In Canada too!
You should totally make the Addams family house!
Those 3 dolls together look like the power puff girls 🤣 💚💙❤
The into made me jump 😂
This style give me hints of New Orleans which I LOVE
Paranormal stuff can be combined with spooky stuff; although, spooky stuff should have been like this.
I don’t think spooky stuff should be like this ... spooky stuff was for Halloween ... and had Halloween-y stuff that were “spooky” so it’s not scary ... paranormal is actually about paranormal stuff ... like the title of the pack actually suits it in my opinion ... spooky is just spooky not scary lol 😆
@@feniskoura3726 Yeah Spooky Stuff is like "I want to have a halloween party for my kid". I get that the people who want stuff that's actually scary were frustrated at having to wait, but it makes sense to have these be separate packs. They're different gameplay styles and some people only want one. (I don't want either.)
For those of you asking, Bonehilda is summoned through the seance table. She doesn’t come with a coffin unlike in the other games 💔
Oh nooo 😭... Coffin and was pretty xd
No literal skeleton in the closet 😢
New Orleans native here. Duplantier is pronounce du-PLAWN-shay and Guidry is pronounced Giddree. 😁
The fact the dolls sorta look like the power puff girls when he set them down made me die a little inside laughing lol
I had a weird nostalgic sort of feeling when I saw them, but couldn't place why. Appreciate the assist my guy haha
That 1 sim in the pic with the mustache looks like Johnny Depp 🤣😍
I wanted this when I heard about it (I voted for it), but now I REALLY want it! I am so excited for James' let's play, too! (as well as others.)
I think the style for the furnitures is called Art Nouveau, which is from the Edwardrian time (early 1900´s). It would make sense to when that Claude René Duplantier-Guidry was alive.
Claude’s appearance reminds me of Johnny Depp. I approve.
The furniture is giving me major 60's/70's takes on the 20's!
Yes this is exactly what I thought!
i didn't realize how many people don't recognize new orleans/french quarter elements until now. its a bit ambiguous though as they apparently also used Moroccan and Egyptian influences (which i don't think james noticed bc he didn't seem to know who horus was), not really sure why they used those as it seems kind of random. that's what bothers me though like why not fully commit to the NO/LA theme? the intent is clear in the furniture anyway and they even put emphasis on a black sim in the trailer. they could've gone all the way with build options so we can build french quarter buildings and estates. even take it further with adding mardi gras for seasons users so we don't have to make it up as a holiday and use incorrect decorations. new orleans history and heritage is so rich and full of creative potential that i feel there was *a lot* of missed potential with this pack.
@@milannoelle1576 Ahh I see. It probably varies from country to country. To be honest I know very little about new Orleans only what they show in the movies. Which tends not to focus around the furniture haha. They probably wanted the pack to not be too specific so that it relates to, or is more recognisable to more people. I like the mixing of different styles personally :)
@@milannoelle1576 I think a lot of people would have missed that. Like I'm not american and I have very little idea what you're talking about. I've heard of New Orleans but that's about it. They should add mardi gras stuff to basegame or the free holidays pack so people don't have to pay extra for it. Like the stuff for Divali and Chinese New Year is basegame or in the free holiday pack.
James: I wish this table didn't have a tablecloth, I wish the pictures changed, I wish this plant was separate CC creators: Write that down, write that down!!!
Those couches and chairs though!! I'm in LOVE!!!
Haha. Nobody can pronounce Guidry. It's GID-dree ("gid rhymes with did - hard G, short i). It's a common Cajun name from Louisiana. Also, it's fitting that the house was built in Willow Creek, since the town is modeled after New Orleans, which has a strong paranormal past. Voodoo dolls, seances, mediums, and haunted places fit right in. It's too bad we didn't get a New Orleans style cemetary with it. That would have been iconic but probably a bit much to expect from a stuff pack. I really love the buy mode items in this pack, and will definitely be buying it for them. Even though I'm not as keen on the ghost hunter game play, or Bonehilda, I'm VERY happy for those (Jesse!) who wanted Bonehilda back in the game.
I love how the Sims team is having game changers build their lots. I feel like they are really showcasing these peoples talents
I'm not surprised the build/buy looks so good, I feel like it's the one aspect that EA consistently delivers well in. The wood tones would've been really good though, even if it was just like one simple wood tone. I love the items though!! The more boho or mid-century items have always been my favorite and this one by far delivers on that. I am kind of into the idea of getting the items all in different colors and having everything not match and it being more of like thrifted furniture. The colors are so freaking pretty, and I am in LOVE with the wallpaper. I've been wanting a really nice wallpaper for so long!
That specter jar at the end seems to be modeled after the ghost jar from Lockwood & Co. Even the description of the specters held in it seems accurate to the Skull in the books. XD
THE NEW BUILD MODE ITEMS ARE SUCH CHEFS KISS IM DYING
Having an elderly woman owing a psychic storefront and ghost busting business would be so fun! This decor is literally my aesthetic. I have all antiques, heirlooms, and weird things in my apartment. Vintage glamor boho vibes. And the floor is literally my wooden floors so I’m excited! I wish there were more actual wooden swatches so the antique pieces could be “original” and not looking refurbished. Still makes me want to buy it and I never really buy stuff packs.
LOL When you put the high chair at the seance table, I thought of child Dean Winchester working on his medium skill with toddler Sam watching hahaha Just popped in my mind.
I love what they’ve done with build and buy! I’m generally a more realistic/family gameplay type of person, I don’t really like occults/fantasy in the Sims, but the way they’ve done b/b and cas so beautifully makes the pack useful to people that don’t like that type of gameplay! I’ll buy it just for the aesthetics and to support the Sims and I’m happy with it. And happy that occult simmers are getting more gameplay! :)
I love using the tall bar stool round table! It’s glass table top and it looks really fancy and you can stick it in small places!
When I first see the overview I was like here we go! again weird stuff.. But actually I really liked most of the stuff. I really surprised 😮
You look really excited in the thumbnail.
I love the way James lays out all the items in build & buy overviews. It’s like a showroom!
love that we have more plain swatches now! also they all look pretty good, love to see it!
Thanks for a great overview on this pack's build/buy catalogue James. I can't wait to see your "lets play" video next. Have an awesome day as well.
When James placed down the three dolls I was losing my mind because the swatches are obviously modeled after the power puff girls
When you were showing us the table lamp it occured to me that I really want power points and light switches. They don't need to be usable, but I'd love the ability to place them on the wall for ~aesthetics~
You are amazing watching all of you sims lets plays again Because of are lockdown in the netherlands Keep doing what your doing Much love
This is super unrelated but James reminds me of the little boy from the Dennis the Menace movie (Joey, I think)
Omg callback to the The Sims 3 store set! they called the crystal ball “Lady Ravenclaw’s” ! Haha
the pictures of darius taupe is a play on the book "the pucture of dorian gray" by oscar widle! i love that so much
I think Movie hangout doors and lights would work really well with the style of this pack!! The clothes are similar too
😍 I’m so excited for this pack!
I loved the designs on the coffee table!!
I love that hand sculpture!
The falcon reminds me of the Maltese Falcon! Especially in the black swatch
With some of the rugs, such as the one you pointed out before the séance table, I wish we could use them as doilies, I mean some of them look lacy enough to be doilies. I don't know why we didn't get doilies in Nifty Knitting.
I loooove these furnitures, decor and wallpapers so much 😍👌🏼
I’m actually... so positively surprised. I love the items and Dr Ashley’s build is amazing 😮
OMG the details with your video is crazy awesom!!!!
TY for the overview, James. LOL, the Creepy Doll trio is the Powerfuff Girls
I am so excited for this pack to come out! I love the build/buy items and even CAS looks good!
I've got a feeling a lot of this is inspired by New Orleans culture and its voodoo/witchy/overall spooky background and vibes. If thats the case, I believe you pronounce those words the following ways: Rene' - Ren-aye Duplantier - DO- PLaan - shAY (plaan-shay rhymes with lawn shay) Guidry - gid-ree These names are French inspired, like many things you'll find in New Orleans and in Louisiana in general - along with Spanish. I hope this helps! You're the best!!
I really like the seance chairs. They will make good garden chairs for my sims.
Really hoping that CC creators go ham and create wood toned versions of all the furniture - completely agree that the colours are fun, and that neutrals would be so much more useful than them. I personally find that the white wood options every item has look really washed out, so I'd love some proper wood tones (on that desk especially!)
Omg the music in the beggining is everything :D
Those ARE some nice items -- I particularly like the display case for little stuff! It's always great when they bring in some really nice furniture and whatnot with these packs. . .and I like the dolls too, though I think they're actually kinda cute! Maybe it's me and loving American McGee's Alice and whatnot. . . But yeah, this looks like a stuff pack I could get excited about! Just gotta make sure the gameplay holds up, but it looks like you're on that one.
I think this is gonna be the first pack that I play first before watching james gameplay. This is the asthetic that I've always wanted to add to my homes. I'm so excited for this pack!
Oh wow i love the haunted house. That is amazing ❤
My favorite things are the couch, the curtain, the macrame & plants!
22:07 dude the power puff girls in the sims 4 lol also just realised that jessi dees already commented this lol
With the plants and the lights, you can upsize them to fit on the floor or downsize them to fit on the table.
That intro song, it's OUR theme pack now.
LOVE the couch!
I cant wait to play the new pack through your videos! lol looking forward to the gameplay
James if you want a solid color for the drawers on the dresser with the patterns use the debug basegame vent in white or black
I think the swatches of all the items compliment each other nicely! You can mix and match colours without making it look completely random.
Horus is a hawk and an Egyptian god 😂
THat house looks awesome. I can't wait to play in it. Thanks for showing us the stuff.
I have waited so long to build to Amityville horror house in this game and now I finally can and I can do it the right way and make it haunted! 😍 I am sooo excited about this pack.
Ahh the items in this pack are so good!! can't wait to buy it 😍
a build with paranormal stuff, laundry day and movie hangout stuff would be so cool (maybe even that jungle game pack)! it would have a really nice boho vibe to it :)
for me the style and paranormal idea reminds me of New Orleans. Which would means the name Claude René Duplantier Guidry would be french and you pronounced it fine !
my phone was flooded with everyone reviewing it😭 phone bliddy froze Ah! This looks so exciting 😭😭 I’m super excited
The style and design looks like that of New Orleans voodoo. A lot of the furniture is French Quarter, too
22:06 the new episode of Power Puff Girls looks great ngl
If your Two Brothers LP is still going once this pack comes out, it would be cool to see you integrate some stuff from Paranormal into your LP (maybe as renovation items?) since you already have vampires within that LP.
The yellow and blue tone choices they made with this pack are perfect - yes to a slightly muted yellow 🙌🏻
the pictures of darius taupe is a reference to the novel the pictures of dorian gray which is a really spooky novel
I love the Darius Taupe joke, because of course Dorian Grey :D
Omg I need the next let's play episode right now 😭
