Overview
Edit
The Sims 3 producer, Kari St. John, stated that Moonlight Falls was "inspired by the misty valleys of the Pacific Northwest".[3] EA representatives have not gone into detail about the world, but have described it as a mysterious town, filled with mystical creatures.
It is situated near mountains with snowy peaks. The world has a variety of new rabbit holes, including Create a World assets, including a town hall, a mausoleum, and a water tower. There are a lot of trees in the area, as well as a river which leads to a waterfall and two rusted or wooden bridges over the river. There is also a small flat bridge, possibly concrete, across the river right before the waterfall.
Moonlight Falls comes with character stories, such as feuding between founding families. The vampire family the Van Goulds and the werewolf family the Wolffs are at odds over who founded Moonlight Falls. The patriarch of the Van Gould family is Ayden Van Gould and the patriarch of the Wolff family is Pappy Wolff. Despite the feuding, the younger generations of these families have found love. [4]
Moonlight Falls is a very unique town as it seems to have a mountain group in the centre of the Supernatural Town. There is a large amount of bridges suggested for transportation around town. There is a beach that almost looks like a rocky coastline on the middle-east area of the suburb.
It is very similar in layout to The Sims expansion "Making Magic"'s neighbourhood "magic town", including a rocky river in the same shape that cuts through the town, a waterfall and bridge in the same place, a mountain range, and the same type of trees throughout.

- Chester Swain and his daughter Bailey resemble Charlie and Bella Swan of the Twilight series. Tristan Van Gould resembles Edward Cullen of the same series.
- Marigold Maldano appears to be a parody of Sookie Stackhouse, as both are descended from fairies and have a deceased Grandmother. Also, the Marigold-Gladsten-Helen love triangle could be a reference to the Sookie-Sam-Tara love triangle in Season 1 of True Blood.
- The beach in Moonlight Falls is called La Shove, possibly a reference to the beach La Push in the Twilight series.
- The three Crumplebottom sister witches โ Beatrice, Belinda, and Bianca โ living together in a Victorian-era manor bear a striking resemblance to Prudence, Piper, and Phoebe Halliwell of Charmed.
- The Roommates Supernatural household, in which a female ghost lives with a male werewolf and a male vampire, is very similar to the household that is the center of the show Being Human.
- Sam's Market Diner could be a reference to Merlotte's diner owned by Sam Merlotte in True Blood.
- The Durwood family strongly resemble the characters of Bewitched, meddling mother-in-law included.
- The jelly bean bush may refer to "Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans" from the Harry Potter series.

- The LLAMA transportation device may be a reference to the TARDIS from the Doctor Who series.
- The Everglow Academy may be a reference to the Evernight Academy in the Evernight vampire series.
- There are exactly four old and decayed houses and buildings throughout Moonlight Falls; one is an old but burnt victorian house located on the other street in front of the MacDuff Manor, second is a green house burned down near the facade of the Bell Barbell's Gym, while the third is a warehouse-like structure across the outskirts of town near the Gypsy Caravan. The fourth one is a completely leveled house that its foundation and the chimney is the only remnants of the house that remained at the end of Lupine Lane which could be a reference to the burned Hale House fromย Teen Wolf. These ruins are notย rabbit holes, or accesible nor it can be interacted by Sims, as they are just a decoration to give the players an eerie feeling.
