@Rae_Regenbogen Was able to duplicate for PC/Mac for Vamps. Haven't tried Aliens.

@crinrict @Rae_Regenbogen I see this also on PS4. Talking to ghosts counts, but vampires, aliens don't. I've tried with alien and vampire household members, and non played alien and vampire Sims and neither count.
I don't work for EA. I'm a player helping other players. I do not respond to PMs.

Still an issue as of patch 1.67.45.1020 for PC. While playing today I noticed that the interaction Admire Ghosts seems to complete the tradition. I've never seen that interaction for vampires or aliens appear. I forgot to check today but previous playing of a holiday with the Spooky tradition didn't have playing the spooky organ music count either, although indicated it should. Have never used mods or cc in my saves.

Ghosts count. Vampires still don't, for me.

Is there any solution yet?
I am still having this problem (PC, tested with Vamps).

Me, too. I thought it was because the vamp in my household is perhaps insufficiently spooky, so we went to visit Vlad, and... nada. Visiting alien friends didn't count, either.
