If anyone would be so kind as to visit my DA in my signature and give me their feedback, I'd really appreciate it! I'm looking for advice on how to achieve a creepy town...something that's not leaving fossils on the ground lol. I can work on farming black flowers but there don't seem to be any creepy PWP or any building options.

Thanks in advance!
 
i'm not too adept with creepy stuff, but what you could do is save it during evening/darker times during a raging thunderstorm. you could create a house with the more run down wallpaper/furniture, definitely see if you can come up with some creepy phrase for your alternate characters/mayors/even your villagers if you want to dedicate yourself to it haha

as for pwps, maybe the pipes? depends on what sort of creepy town you want, i guess. the pwps don't seem to easily fit into the theme, but perhaps more of the industrial ones would. some caution signs near creepy areas around town or a creepy town, or put up some signs and have weird QR codes put up on them. that cube sculpture could be pretty creepy as well. i know a lot of towns also leave up the fallen apart perfect trees if you want to do that, a lot of pitfalls if you want to be incredibly annoying to dream visitors heh. you could also make a weird torture room in a house with that furniture (the proper name is escaping me, but there's a chair that looks just like an electrocution-esque thing, and a bed with a circle saw thingy ehh how articulate).

EDIT: oh and the halloween furniture maybe! not all of it perhaps, or it'll look cheesy. skeleton models or the human models in general also.

I think it's the scientists' chair? Laboratory chair? Something like that...Also leaving my dead trees up is a great idea that I didn't even think of, thanks!
 
I personally think the scarecrow, statue fountain, moai statue, stonehenge, bus stop, torch and topiaries can be used to create a creepy atmosphere in your town :)
 
I've seen a lot of graveyards, but I think it would be cool to make one thats a bit larger than the ones I've seen.A person could really make a cool one if they had an area with lots of space.
