Sims 4 Day of the Dead challenge - Where are there tombstones in the game?
After spending an entire night (in Sims time) with no Day of the Dead celebrants showing up, I searched online and found that you need to leave an offering at a tombstone at night to draw them out. But where in the world are there tombstones?!? I can't find a cemetery anywhere, and I searched through the Von Haunt location thinking (because of the name) that it would have some. Nope. Nor does the Goths' lot appear to have any, unlike in Sims 3 where they had a family cemetery in the backyard.
Nowhere in any of the guides did it say where to find a tombstone! I don't want to go play some random Sim just to try to kill it (and I don't know how Sims can be quickly killed in Sims 4), and I certainly don't want to kill anyone in my brand-new family of 3. I got this DotD challenge while playing a new game in which I've only had this family for less than 1 week in Sim-time, so there are no Sims that have dropped dead in the neighborhood, nor is there likely to be anytime soon.
Did I miss a location where there are tombstones? Help, please, if you can. This game really irritates me much more than any other of the Sims games I've ever played, lol. You would think they would have improved on the series given how awesome Sims 3 is, instead of going backwards. :p
And yes, I activated testing cheats and used the code for showing hidden objects, hoping to find a tombstone to place, but there weren't any tombstones or urns in Buy mode.

Actually, the cheats are the way to go and it is in there, but do this step-by-step to save further irritation.
Make sure your selected Sim is on their home lot.
Put in the two cheat codes:
testingcheats on (it will stay on permanently until you put 'testingcheats off' when done with it), then
bb.showhiddenobjects
Enter build/buy mode
In the search box on the left, start typing tombstone (it should show up on the list as soon as you type 'tom').
Click Tombstone on the list and it will bring up the item pic, highlighted
Click it and place it on the lot. Don't worry about it being on your lot; a ghost does not come with it.
That's it; you're in business!
Many players still use 'testingcheats true' which has a habit of dropping periodically, especially when changing screens (build/buy) or loading screens (CAS and travel). Maybe that's why you couldn't find it?
