๐Ÿ“– The story

The living built this house. The dead will inherit it. You'll raise a whole family within these walls, let time take them one by one, and then keep playing โ€” not as their descendants, but as the ghosts who never left.

๐Ÿ’ The goal

Build a living household, let it pass on over time, and continue playing **entirely as its ghosts**.

๐Ÿ“‹ General rules

  • Build a living household, then let them die naturally over time.
  • Keep their **urns/tombstones on the lot** โ€” never release them.
  • Once all are ghosts, only ghosts may be controlled.

โœจ Specific rules

  • No resurrecting the dead (no Ambrosia, Book of Life or wishing-well revival) โ€” death is the point.
  • The manor stays the family's eternal home.
  • Continue active play as the ghost household.

โœ… What you can do

  • Let Sims die naturally (old age or in-game causes) and keep them as playable ghosts.
  • Use `bb.moveobjects`.

โ›” What you can't do

  • No killing Sims with cheats โ€” only natural or in-game deaths.
  • Don't resurrect anyone โ€” the household stays ghostly.
  • No money cheats.

๐ŸŽฎ If you don't own the packs

Fully base-game โ€” ghosts are a base-game feature.

๐Ÿ’ก Strategy tips

  • Different **deaths give different ghost colours and quirks** โ€” vary how your Sims pass for a more characterful spectral family.
  • Ghosts can still garden, paint and socialise; lean on those to keep "life" going after death.
  • With Paranormal Stuff, a Haunted House lot and the sรฉance table turn the manor into a genuinely active afterlife.

๐Ÿ”ฅ Want it harder?

  • Grow the ghost family **further** โ€” have two ghosts conceive and raise a new generation of the dead.
  • Never let a single living Sim move in again.

๐ŸŽญ Variations

A "haunted bed & breakfast" where living guests visit but never stay, and the ghosts run the house. ---
