The Sims 4: How Occults Fit Into The World
The Sims 4 upholds the franchise's longstanding tradition of dropping alternative life states and accompanying specialist neighbourhoods.

With months and sometimes years separating the release of each expansion or game pack, it can get confusing to deconstruct the timeline when it comes to the occult life states on offer in The Sims 4.
