Home is where the heart is.(The bodies are in the basement)
The occult world’s most infamous family is in forced retirement.
After their brand of menace and mayhem gets them booted from the supernatural world, the Strauds are happy to go their separate ways. Between divorce, betrayals, and a long-standing argument over who broke the antique bust of Princess Cordelia, each member is sure they are better off on their own. But when new love interests, a mysterious ghost, and a series of grisly crimes force them back together, will they choose to fight with each other or forgive?
The Strauds is a paranormal romance/dark comedy SimLit that dives into the domestic lives of the morally gray and villainous. It has mature themes and language.

In 1882, a number of events set our story in motion. There’s a shipwreck that brings a much-needed windfall for the Goth family, the supernatural community elects three Sages, and the Straud family receives notice of their exile and reacts “mildly.” Oh, and someone should really check up on that beast that terrorized a Brindleton Bay theater. Our Baking By Death Alternate Universe adventure begins!

Happy Valentines! I decided that the best way to celebrate this day of love was to have the characters I love do a little cosplay. That's right; your faves are out here on these streets posing as characters from other Simlits. I tried to get the vibes of each story right, if not the costumes.
