Occasionally our favorite game may have some kind of strange glitch, be it a pricing inaccuracy, a loading issue with a funky error message, or just something downright funny to look at. Neverlandonearth77 recently uploaded the video above to YouTube showing an awfully suspicious looking glitch in PetVille. She claims that a ghost is randomly appearing in her house and her neighbor's pet's houses. We're not exactly sure if this is a bug with the game or just a silly trick she is playing on everyone, but it is still a creepy thought nonetheless!
What do you think? Is the video above showing a case of a creepy accidental glitch in PetVille, or are you not quite as gullible as we are? Have you seen this eerie PetVille ghost in your pet's home?
Which Glitch is a new regular feature in which Games.com - The Blog will highlight one unique glitch, bug, or error found in our favorite Facebook games. Have a screenshot or video of a strange glitch you've run into? Email us at editors@games.com to be featured!

Cafe World Spice Rack: Now requires less parts to complete
Cafe World Spice Rack now only requires 4 of each item
Just last week, Zynga released an update to Cafe World that allowed anyone who hasn't yet completed their Spice Rack to buy the entire thing at a 40% discount. Tonight, the Spice Rack has been made even easier to obtain for those who don't want to spend money to finish it. Instead of requiring 5 of each part (Shelves, Small/Medium/Large Jars, and Lids), players now only need 4 of each piece. This brings the total amount of required Spice Rack parts to 20, which is down from 25 previously.
With the major push to finish the Super Stove, perhaps Zynga are planning on removing the Spice Rack mechanic at some point? Perhaps they are wanting to move it to the next level and have players buy spices for their rack? Or maybe they're noticing that new players can be awfully overwhelmed by the amount of work they have ahead of them to finish all the game's buildables.
If you got a slow start on your Spice Rack, now is the time to complete it. Log in to Cafe World and request some Spice Rack parts from your friends.

FishVille: New Pearl Stash and more Atlantis decorations
FishVille Pearl Stash
Last week, FishVille debuted the first few items of a new theme, Atlantis. As expected, tonight they have added on to this theme with many more decoration items and a new minigame in the form of a Pearl Stash. If you have been playing FishVille, you are very familiar with the Pearl Stash concept, as FishVille have been reusing the same mechanic over and over for such themed events as the Gemstone Pouch and the Mushroom Mound. You simply need to collect Pearls from your friends (or purchase them at the price of 5 Sand Dollars for a 5 pack) and redeem them for different items.
In addition to the Pearl Stash collection, FishVille has given us a decent sized set of new mysterious Atlantis items. The new items are almost split completely in half between Sand Dollar items and coins items. Read on for the list of new Atlantis decor available in FishVille.
Dumbo Octopus - 14 Sand Dollars (Limited Time, 5.6 Days Left)
Crystal Armillary - 10 Sand Dollars
Divine Totem - 8 Sand Dollars
Vision Pendant - 4 Sand Dollars
Mystic Column - 2 Sand Dollars
Temple Steps - 150,000 coins
Green Temple Gem - 10,000 coins
Fallen Columns - 50,000 coins
Celestial Relic - 125,000 coins
Simple Pendant - 50,000 coins
Simple Totem - 75,000 coins
Like usual, the coins items are quite unattainable at the low levels. It's nice to see a low priced Sand Dollar item though such as the 2 Sand Dollars Mystic Column, because this means that those earning Sand Dollars at the snail pace that FishVille gives them out, will still have a chance to have an item from this Atlantis collection.

Treetopia launches new paid hairstyles and clothing
Treetopia new hairstyles and clothing options
We did a lengthy preview post of Playdom's new game, Treetopia, and it's been so much fun that we're keeping a very close eye on it. Today, Treetopia has released the first few items that are only available for its paid currency, gems. Gems are only attainable by purchasing them for real life money as far as we can tell (we're level 12 and still haven't been given any gems to spend) and so far can only be used on two new hairstyles and four new clothing options. We're sure Treetopia players are sad to see that the game is now releasing items for gems, but it was only a matter of time. Facebook games are free-to-play, but the game developers do need to make a profit with their games in order to keep operating them. Let's take a peek at the new hairstyles and clothes; read ahead for more information.
There are four new clothing choices available for your villagers, including two for females and two for males. Each of these outfits cost 10 gems, or roughly $2.50 each. For females, there is a Canopy Dress and a Starburst Blouse. For men, the Storm Armor and the Starburst Tunic will be sure to give your villagers that style you have been looking for. The Canopy Hairpin puts a cute little white hairpin in your women's hair, and the Storm Helmet is a perfect fit with the Storm Armor.
Are you disappointed with these choices? What kind of clothing and hairstyles would you like to see for your Treetopia villagers?

Treasure Isle: New map screen teases with unreleased maps
Treasure Isle released an update today that includes a new shiny map layout that we think is far superior to the last one. In the new map screen, you first choose the theme of islands that you want to visit. Instead of immediately having to page through the Tiki Isles, then the Mayan Isles, you will now open up to a map that shows the Tiki and Mayan Isles (and more) on a zoomed out overlook view. This not only is a better interface for navigating through your maps, but it also gave us a sneak peek into upcoming maps.
Previewed on the new map screen with a "Coming Soon" banner are the new Egyptian Isles, Pirate Cove, North Pole, Asian Isles, and Atlantis. We are personally thrilled with this, because if we have one major complaint with Treasure Isle it's the dreariness of each map looking like the last. Having some new and unique themes will bring a change of scenery that we've been waiting for.
In addition, the new Tiki Gold Rush maps were released, including Happy Seas, Rocky Waters, Eternal Estuary, Lava Chief, Longboard Land, Boogie Beach, and Sad Tiki Sands. Finally, a couple smaller changes were made such as the release of a smaller backpack that allows you to see your energy while eating fruit, some new pirate items, and the ability to plant limited time Dragonfruit that will give you Treasure Cash when harvested.

Mafia Wars Fourth of July Sale kicks off Friday
In honor of Fourth of July, Mafia Wars will be holding a sale that promises saving of "up to 50% in the Marketplace." Though detailed information hasn't been spilled just yet, an email blast from Zynga says that the special holiday event will include hourly sales, new items, reward point discounts and 'exclusive prizes.'
If you've had your eye on some super fancy item that costs lots of Reward Points, this might be your big chance to buy and call it your own. (Or not, if you're a no-spend player like me).

Restaurant City parodies celebrities in upcoming 'Almost Famous' theme
Restaurant City Almost Famous Week
This Thursday, Restaurant City is giving players everything they need to roll out the red carpet for a parade of Hollywood stars. And here's a twist -- all your celebrities are going to sport food monikers that are playful puns of their original names.
Restaurant City 'Almost Famous' Stars
Angelina Jelly, Bread Pot, and Julienne Morsel are obviously Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, and Julianne Moore. And boy, Johnny Dough certainly resembles Johnny Depp. But Robert Pancakes has me completely stumped. (Any takers?) All five of them count as outdoors decor though, so they'll only be available outside your restaurant.
Restaurant City Brittany Spearmint and Lady Cocoa
Indoors, we've got Brittany Spearmint and Lady Cocoa, an obvious rip on Brittany Spears and Lady Gaga. But there's one more -- Greg The Tasteful Dancer. Someone more celebrity-savvy is going to have to figure out Greg for me -- the only Greg I know is the Games.com - The Blog's über boss. Anyway, prices for this new decor set won't be announced until the set's release, which is less than two days away.
