I don't think that this should be labeled as a Request, but rather a website/marketplace bug.
If you do a global search for Haunted One, you will find the Backgrounds list - this clearly states that the Haunted One background can be purchased individually
Quote from From the Background page »
This background is part of the Curse of Strahd digital content pack. You can purchase this individual background, all backgrounds within this content, or save even more by purchasing the entire content pack.
Once a background is purchased, you can view the details of the background, and add it to your characters.
Ok, this has to be an error now since Tomb of Annihilation allows people to buy its two backgrounds as separate purchases. Could we please hear from staff about this?
Update: Looks like it's now available as a free option (perhaps because it was published for free by WotC).
Okay this explains it. I was so confused why my player was able to use this background despite me not having purchased Curse of Strahd. I was super confused. I port character sheets into fantasy grounds and it looks like over there I have to buy that expansion to get that background. Luckily a background seems easy to build from scratch in FG.
Is the Haunted One background not available for individual purchase? It seems odd.
Not at this time, but that may change in the future.

+1 to this - seems like we should be able to purchase, but it was lost in the launch shuffle.

Yay. Thanks!
I gotta say, fixing this within 2 days of posting is pretty good. Hope you keep up this level of customer support!
