Release Spirit to Netherworld after a sim has died
If your Sim has died, you may be wondering what you need to do to release their spirit into the Netherworld. First, you have to make sure the Sim has actually died in the first place. If the Sim has died in the past, you will be able to see a tombstone or urn, but you will not be able to create a ghost. This is a common mistake that players make, so follow these instructions carefully.
To release a Sim’s spirit to the Netherworld after he or she dies, the first thing you must do is talk to the Grim Reaper, which will ask you for your Sim’s spirit. If you do not have any money, you can offer to buy them a tombstone. You can also offer them death flowers. However, it’s advisable to avoid this option at all costs.
When a Sim dies outside the household, the Sim’s spirit will go to a mausoleum at the nearby graveyard. You can manage the tombs of other Sims and family members in the mausoleum. If you want to resurrect a Sim, you need to purchase a tombstone and an urn. After the Sim dies, mourning will start, and it can last up to 48 hours.
Communicate with specters
One way to get rid of a ghost in Sims 4 is to communicate with it. There are two types of specters: friendly and mischievous. Friendly specters tend to behave well around humans, but they can be easily irritated by a player’s efforts. Mystery specters are more difficult to read, and their interactions can result in mixed results.
When your Sims are experiencing ghostly visits, they will see strange runes and creepy vines crawling across the yard. Then, the sacred candle burns out with a faint wisp of smoke. Then, a horrifying doll appears, only to vanish again. Panic-stricken Sims will begin to scatter in a frenzy. However, a friendly ghost named Claude Ren? Duplantier Guidry will appear to offer tips on how to get rid of ghostly visitors.
Fortunately, there are ways to communicate with specters. If you know a Sim, they can ask Guidry for help. If they’ve met him before, he can be called to your lot and give you useful items and advice. If your Sim is particularly fearful of ghosts, Bonehilda can help clear the lot, but her opinions won’t always be logical.
Identify a ghost
To identify a ghost in Sims 4, the first step is to invite it into your household. When the ghost arrives, it will appear under Friendly socials, but unless your Sims are friends with it, they will never move in. To get a ghost in your household, you must first max out your friend’s friendship bar. If you are unsure of how to get a ghost, you can simply press Shift+Click on it to reveal the debug menu. Once you’ve mastered this, you can buy them from the Gallery for a few Simoleons.
There are several types of ghosts in Sims 4, but the easiest one to spot is the old ghost. This ghost is nice to your Sims and will often sleep, although he’ll start out frightened of Murphy Beds. It’s not hard to socialize a ghost, and with patience, they can even become friends. Besides their names, ghosts have different colors that indicate their mood. The happy ones are green, while flirty ghosts are pink. If your Sim dies by electrocution, you’ll have two options: Possess to Break or Trick with Hand Buzzer.
The next step is to determine if the ghost has a Death Trait. Ghosts are NPC ghosts. The first step is to visit the tombstone lot, where the Sim died. To summon a ghost, you must wait for the ghost to spawn, which usually happens once every few nights. Once you’ve done this, save your game so that you can identify the ghost in Sims 4.
