The special NPC arriving due to appearance of child sim ghost can be wild. One time in my game a child of Don and Dina died by fire, and when their ghost appeared the NPC that spawned was Bella Goth. Considering her disappearance being often tied to Don and/or Dina, it was crazy to witness.
That sounds so cool
Which Bella though, the one from pleasantview or that one with a different face in strangetown?
the grim reaper loving kids is really sweet
Darleen and Skip could be negative towards their alive family members because these specific Darleen and Skip aren’t real Darleen and Skip… but those new copies of them added mid development (cuz you know there are hidden Skip, Darleen and Michael Bachelor in game files)
Yeah! And there's no way to restore the "originals", but the newer versions appear in the family tree, so it still seems strange
Pregnant zombie is probably most disturbing thing I ever heard about Sims 2 😣
"Don't worry Skip, nobody does" 💀
I didn’t know about the ambient grave noises until recently and I must admit when I first heard them I got genuinely a bit scared 😱 I know…I’m 28 years old and I got scared by the sims. But the noises are spooky!!!
I think I was also 28 when I found this out and it spooked me too 😆
I just love this game so much for the little details like this
ugh I really don't know why it is so but Grimm in sims 2 always has a special place in my heart
Right?! Best Grim!
Zombies don’t necessarily bother sims, but I find that since their personality points get reset they are always mean and will pick a lot of fights with other sims 😂
Stinky rogues
I currently have a household with a witch and a zombie. I have the witch make Sugar & Spice potions for the zombie when I want him to make friends 😂
I find TS2 ghosts unspeakably creepy. I remember playing the base game at the ripe age of 11 and getting absolutely traumatized by them. Back then, you kinda needed to deal with ghosts at home if you were playing with a family, with aging on for a long time. And, my god, they made things so difficult (I didn't want to sell the graves cause the platinum death ones are actually kind of pretty)!
And the sounds they made! Might be the reason why till this very day I hate eerie sounds.
Also, I don't think I saw it before, I do appreciate the Simbus 2000 reference :D 12:45
I always found the ghosts annoying, 1st thing I do when playing a premade household with graves is moving the graves away.
When I was 7, ghosts creeped me out so much haha. Now I'm 23 and it's like, "nice, a ghost."
For the deleted graves bug - Mootilda's Hoodchecker will bring them back and fix the unlink
I have read on Mod The Sims that the maximum chance of succeeding when pleading for loved one is 90%. Apparently it takes the daily and lifetime relationship of the Sim who is pleading towards the Sim who is dying and adds them together. That number is the percentage chance they have to succeed, except if the number is below 25 it always fails and if it's above 90 the chance is reduced to 90%. So in theory a 45/45 relationship works just as well as 100/100.
Odd, I don't do it in my gameplay anymore but when I did back in the day I only really ever remember it failing like twice, every other time it worked. Maybe it's true.
I've read somewhere that it's always 100% first, but reduced by 10% each time you do it again. edit: Buuut I just remember it's not related to this interaction but to the power to cheat death granted by the genie :D
@@kacpernowak1535 I've had it not work on Sims who died for the first time, that can't be true. Besides, it's not like most Sims will die enough times for that to be a big deal.
Omg I had no idea tombstones make sounds at night! Probably cause I'm too spooked to even think about getting close to them lmao
Sims 2 zombies are great; to me, they’re just a handy way of making sims immortal without using cheats (and without the drawback of vampires). You can also kill them again and pay a little more to bring them back a with their personality reversed if the meanness and sloppiness gets too much.
Thank you for mentioning and explaining angry ghost thoughts bubbles!
Always was confused by them.
Remembering same situation on Capps lot.
All ghosts were angry at all family members, and on other ghosts (their dead children), showing Family aspiration bubble etc.
Now it explains a lot!
Thank you for mentioning the video explaining what really happens when you delete tombstones! It’s one of my favorite sims 2 videos and I really love how it breaks down the rumors about tombstones
8:23 Bad that I know this, I know - but toddlers can die from a variety of things with Rodney's death creator, like a disease animation, fire animation etc - also toddlers can die from fire but its tricky
Do the toddlers even have animations that play for those? Or do they just die without doing anything
I always wondered where the spooky sounds came from!!! I just presumed it happened when there was a grave/urn on the lot, but never thought it actually came from the graves themselves! This explains why sometimes I heard it and sometimes I didn't... I must have been nearer/further away from the gravestone or urn! Amazing
I love the Better Ghosts mod on ModTheSims! It allows you to have more than 3 ghosts on a lot, aswell as many other features!
Oh, I didn't know about that, thanks!
I'll have to check this one out thank you!
Ah yes, Necropolis theme as a background music, what more could you want
Is it from fallout 1?
@@betuna9487 No, Heroes of Might and Magic III.
awh hell yeah the spooky Marticore video!!
*foaming at the mouth* please make a sims 2 vampire video i need that content tbh
I remember once using the genie lamp to resurrect a couple child sims and getting freaked out because their personality had changed and the text implied that they were zombies! Their appearance didn’t change so I thought the game broke and did the sane thing: quit without saving and never tried it again… 😆
(Leonardo pointing meme) I think that's my hair retexture in the thumbnail! I've been really enjoying your videos so that was a pleasant surprise. This was another great deep dive into Sims trivia - I didn't know child ghosts were that glitched, lol. I also had no idea that non-old-age ghosts lost their typing if you moved their tombstone, so I'm really glad I found out about it and the mod to fix it now rather than later. Thank you for still making videos about this game!
16:40 Curious where you've heard about this. In my times using the cowplant I've never had one of my own sims autonomously go for the cowplant, whether hungry or not. The only ones who get accidentally killed by the cowplant afaik are townies/NPCs.
I'm pretty sure I've had my own Sims go for the cake 🤔 But true that it's mostly townies, active Sims will more likely stuff their faces at the fridge lol
There is one more way to get the Resurrect-o-nomitron in vanilla gameplay. When a sim goes to University, if they become a Secret Society Member, they can slip it into their inventory to use when they return home. I am uncertain if they can resurrect (without mods), while at Uni (except maybe other campus students), but I often will use this method, if the storyline fits it.
I experimented with this a while ago and I *think* that I couldn’t resurrect anyone while on the secret society lot. I was trying to resurrect a fellow SS member who had died on the SS lot (I let the cowplant eat him, lol). Perhaps if my sim had someone else in their dorm household who died they might’ve been able to resurrect them while on the SS lot - but I didn’t try that out. If I did try that out I’d like to find out if the location of the grave has any effect on if sims can be resurrected on the SS lot or not. Also, take note that my experiments was were while ago so my memory on this could be wrong. But yes; this is a great way to get the bone phone without going through the effort of becoming a cult leader. You still have to work to get into the secret society… but befriending members while in uni is a lot quicker than working your way to the top of the paranormal career path.
@@VeryBlueberrry Thanks for replying❣ That does sound accurate (your testing results). If one is unable to resurrect the SS members that died on the SS lot, then I highly doubt even playable Uni sims could be resurrected there (for they would need to be members, and you cannot send 2 playable sims to the SS lot simultaneously). I know that you can resurrect Uni sims while living in Student Housing or Greek Houses (not certain about Dorms), because I have done so in the past (you just have to have room in the active household, or a mod that allows more than the playable 8), and I was able to resurrect both methods (paying too low to get zombies, or paying a higher price to get sims back with their normal state).
The kid ghosts are TERRIFYING wth 😭😭
1:32 yes your sims can actually fail and loose. Your sim will then cry about it afterwards.
I wasn't sure if the failing was only when their relationship isn't high enough
@@Marticore idk if this is 100% true, but for me if my sims have good relationships and high logic, they'll have a higher chance of winning
I don't think logic has anything to do with it
@@Marticore didn't think so, but for some reason, it was a strange coincidence that my sims were revived with high logic
that grave sound is creepiest thing ever
Thank you for constantly providing the best supernatural centered content 🧡🖤
Another i think what can cause a ghost sims to be mad if they see their partner in another relationship
Yes, but I think that just counts as a new Sim living in the house
I always appreciate your informational videos. I see you a lot in the sims 2 group on Facebook and you’ve helped me there too (don’t feel bad for not knowing who I am. You help a lot of people out, plus my name here and my name on fb are completely different.)
I always get excited when I see a new info-video from you!
Excellent video! I love spooky stuff 👻 especially in Sims!
I had a sim, created elder, that didn't live long enough in game to get attached to any bed. She did, however form an attachment to one of the toilets that I wound up deleting and replacing because it was always breaking down. So after that, every night she was out she complained about her toilet that I had deleted. I found it very amusing.
Zombie teens will never get up to A+ grades, either. Sim children have to age up at least one day before their grades start going up. Since zombies don't age, they will never get above the C they start out with. I once resurrected one of the teens on Olive Specter's lot because she wanted to make a zombie. I also wanted to have a teen zombie go to college.
I love the creepy noises you hear when you hover over the graves. Ghost pets have got to be the scariest thing in the game. Even scarier than the first time you hear the burglar music! Holy crap, those Eyes! I do love the ghost dogs digging ghost holes though. That's cute.
Once when playing the Smith family, PolTech’s ghost scared his son Johnny, killing him. After Johnny died a notification from PolTech popped up saying “That was a great week, I hope I can keep this up” … so spooky. This also made me wonder, do ghosts have wants? Usually I get those notifications when fulfilling a want has improved my sims aspiration score. Did PolTech want Johnny to die so he could join the afterlife with him? Very weird. Anyone else had something like this happen?
Omg…now I wanna know all the functions of ghosts
another marticore video! yess❤❤
Yay the algorithm finally put you on my home page!!! Also hi Marticore great vid 🫡
Very informative! I've never had a zombie in my game.
I really love how it sounds like you're reviewing the Grim Reaper when you're comparing costs.
Very well made.
Great vid as usual. Kind of a side note but is there a mod to unlock the woohoo on hammock want? I’ve never seen that in my game 🤔
I don't think I have a mod for that 🤔
12:51 Omg the New Simbus 2000😂 it's so 00's, love this
You make amazing content
loved it❤
10:34 I think one of April Black video mentioned this but I believe it is caused by change in neighborhood id.
Yep!
Thanks!
omg, thank you!
I didn't know you could kill servos! I've avoided playing with them for that reason.
2:45
Slightly more precisely they usually go away at 6am
But it may take them a while if they're far from their grave at that time lol
And if i remember correctly they appear at 8pm but I'm unsure where ive read that and i didnt pay enough attention to check myself
Edit. Yes, there's a max 3 ghosts limit by default
I love ts2 zombies, they did them so well!
I literally had no idea they existed until now!
Great video and happy spooktober ! Pleading for loved one is not guaranteed success. I actually had this case in witch i d murder sims for a story purpose and to not feel guilty i used that option and it worked but when i actually wanted to use it on sims i loved most it did not work. And god the grave sounds terrify me to this day. There is a limit indeed to how many ghosts can appear and the game does actually check ghosts at 7 pm (an actual bhav function in simPE) and there s also a mod that hightens the limit to even a hundred i think?? I m pretty sure i ve seen a video of calipers and tongs where they tried to spawn a hundred ghosts on the lot and the game literally can t handle it so it crashes. It s pretty interesting. Ghosts scaring living sims is quite interesting either and it s always a death trigger in my game and it s a pain sometimes.
HoM&M soundtrack!!! Love
That grave ambience is nice
My dog ghost would always float into the bathroom and take baths and then leave.
That Sim probably took a lot of baths when alive :D They're usually obsessed with bubble baths, especially in the bamboo bathtub, so I can totally see that
@@Marticore Oh it was the bamboo bathtub. She never interacted with anyone. Just floated into the bathroom, had her bath, and then floated outdoors. The dog was a sweet little thing, it was just cute that she loved her baths.
Oh, it was a dog! Sorry, missed a word. Yeah, that makes sense!
Thx for your video, I now know why I never see ghosts after I moved the graves to a community lot, I won't change it because ghosts are unnerving lol
7:29 That was already 3 years ago? Oh my god...
I had to build a cemetery for my sims because they were making my toilets pipes break every time. I also had to move my family to another house lot. The more my sims fixed their toilets the more easily the pipes break with a single flush.
Their cemetery looked gorgeous, for I have build them up some sort of Greek cemetery style. With lots of gardening, Greek statues and other decorative objects.😅
replaying a lot with ghosts on it after finding out that they become attached to objects and get angry at new sims living in the house they lived in makes me feel the most unnerved I've felt playing ts2 in over a decade somehow lol
I'd love a video about vampires!!
I once offered the maximum amount for the resurrection of one of my sims and he revived as a zombie... Where's my refund?! :D
Was it 10k?
@@Marticore yeah...
Huh, that is weird 🤔
Huh
CallMeKevin's zombie Vidcund kept getting abducted and impregnated
It's like Sisyphus but worse
🤔 Well, they don't have the Try For Baby interaction but maybe alien pregnancy is still possible, I haven't checked 😆
@@Marticore haha oh lord, the implications…
Random but I watched your clips when I got ready for prom a few years ago,
Geez i forgot that you have english channel. Well more content :3
6:38 En mi caso los fantasmas SIEMPRE se quejan del Sim más joven de la unidad doméstica, aunque sea un bebé recién nacido
Makes sense, as the youngest is the most likely to not be known by the ghost
6:36 the disrespect on my queen's name omg😭
The only time I noticed the sounds that the graves make was after I broke up with my then girlfriend in real life and killed her on the game because of it. I thought that she somehow was hunting my game, got scared and deleted it. 😭
The ghosts from sims 2 look the most realistic ones, i wish they would put that style back in the sims 3 and sims 4 but sadly they don't look realistic in those games.
👻🧟♂️
I had a knowledge sim want to make his dead fiancé (/baby momma) into a zombie, guess that's not technically a family member so it was considered ok to roll as a want
17:20 you can buy a potion from gypsy woman and cure zombie.
Edit: or maybe not? I'm not sure now.
Nope
@@Marticore boooo.
i would always create new neighborhoods and make the whole town either all vampires or ghost and it just glitches the whole town lol
1:30 It won't be a success if the person that died didn't like or even know the Sim that's pleading for loved one.
Challenge: listen to the whole sentence before commenting
Hello
The thing I'd really like to know is what should I do to make the ghost appear or prevent it from appearing? To manage wants and fears. I know I can move the grave to community lot to never see a ghost, but sometimes I need it on my home lot. And more often I play as a knowlege sim, so I get the "see a ghost" want a lot and move grave ls from graveyard to the home lot in order to do it... I never saw a ghost on the community lot, is ts even possible?
It is possible! But ghosts need 24 hours, so this time has to pass on the community lot first. You can send one Sim, manage their needs via cheat and wait until the ghosts appear, from that point on they can come out any night you visit the lot!
As for fulfilling the want, I'm afraid you just have to wait for the ghost to haunt your Sim.
@@Marticore thank you for reply, I never knew about 24 hours, now it makes perfect sense. Since I go to the graveyard very rare in normal gameplay, I don't think there ever were 24 hours 😂
Very off topic but at first sight I thought the left girl on the thumbnail was Taylor Swift 😭😭😭😭😭
Close, it's Lyla Grunt
Can child sims be scared (but not die from it?)
The Sim (TS2) of my then boyfriend, hated every single lounge in the game and dropped dead out shear frustration of my choices (didn't have any mods or cc at all).
His traits/personality: 6 neat & active, 4 outgoing & Nice & 5 playful... ish, I last play his Sim 10 years ago, so I could be a couple of points off.
If it used to happen, it's been patched out. There was also the mystery pregnancy death that was only because pregnant Sims have the disease token that apparently used to be lethal.
@@Marticore It's those type of glitches I don't mind (it was only the lounges he hated). I still have the same disk version (no updates) as well as the recent collection. It all make for interestingly fun gameplay.
Maybe there was a bug where comfort/environment desperation could kill the sim lol
@@ravenID429 it made for fun gameplay though
is there a mod to fix the child ghosts?
No, it's best to move their graves to a community lot
Sorry, there is a fix! modthesims.info/d/657223/child-ghost-npc-summon-fix.html
@@Marticore Ty!!
I hate how sims 2 ghosts are so mean spirited.
They just want attention 😆
Maybe they’re trying to bring their loved ones…into the afterlife with them lol
But you can turn zombies back human saw it yesterday
Where
@@Marticore How tf do I re-find this message but not the awnser reply I did send you prior ...
1😊
no one likes angela pleasant
I didn't know sims 2 had zombies I thought it was only in the 3rd game, Sims 4 really is just a downgrade compared to this smh
