The new title makes it hard to tell what the image is supposed to be. I had to look at the old puzzle to figure it out. For everyone else, the original title was "It goes bump in the night."

I actually decided after the first remake to not copy titles word for word. I will admit I could perhaps come up with a better title here, at least something close to the original title.

As for the Moderate Lookahead note, the editor indicated that it could be solved by line logic; if anything, there is "smile logic" at the end of the puzzle.

I found a lot of smile logic here, at row 6, 17 and 20, so I marked it moderate lookahead.

Found to be solvable with moderate lookahead by dbouldin.

EL and two-way only for me. Never saw anything that would qualify for smile, but probably just did other logic that meant I never got to that point. Might resolve and track so I can do a walk-thru because there was fun logic in there. Thanks!
