A cemetery is a home feature found throughout The Sims series, and a type of community lot in The Sims 2 and The Sims 3. In The Sims 3 it is also a lot assignment.

Contents

The SimsEdit

Both of the Goth family lots in the base game and Unleashed have cemeteries, though only the original one has ghosts. "The Gothic Quarter" in Old Town, and "Vernon's Vault" and "A Spooktacular Spot" in Magic Town all contain gravestones, but again they lack ghosts.

When lots with gravestones are exchanged or moved to different neighborhoods, they will no longer have a ghost associated with them as the data of the Sims who had died and were linked to the gravestones is not transferred with the house. This can cause some problems, including gravestones summoning random NPCs.

The Sims 2Edit

Home cemeteriesEdit

Cemeteries have been constructable on playable Sims' lots since The Sims. The Goth Family is famous for the many cemeteries found outside their homes in every game. The Specter Family is also famous for having a massive graveyard in their garden. Although it's not as large as the Specter Graveyard, the Capp family has a graveyard as well, and is the only one to have both tombstones and urns -- two urns are placed in the Capps' living room.

Community lot cemeteriesEdit

The Sims 2: Nightlife added the ability to move graves from one lot to another, which allows cemeteries to be on community lots. The Downtown sub-neighborhood shipped with Nightlife includes the Gothier Green Lawns cemetery, which is the first cemetery found on a community lot. Gothier Green Lawns features some members of the Tricou family and is right next to their home.

The Sims 3Edit

Gameplay descriptionEdit

As a lot assignment, graveyards provide the Creepy Graveyard moodlet to Sims who don't possess the Brave or Evil traits:

Image Moodlet Name Mood Effect Time Period From Game Dialog/Description Notes Expansion

In The Sims 3, a Sim can get a part-time job in a cemetery as a Mausoleum Clerk. Cemeteries are now known as graveyards.

Fish in a pond located in the cemetery will turn into deathfish and vampire fish at midnight. At around midnight, mist will appear around all of the graves, and the ghosts will come out. If you have at least level 7 gardening you can plant seeds picked from the Death Flower Bush. These seeds are 'perfect' quality.

There is also a local cemetery in every destination of The Sims 3: World Adventures.

Setting off fireworks in a graveyard will awaken some ghosts and the Sim who set them off will get paid for entertaining the cemetery's residents.

Sunset ValleyEdit

Pleasant Rest GraveyardEdit

Pleasant Rest Graveyard in Sunset Valley


The Pleasant Rest Graveyard is the cemetery in Sunset Valley. While "Pleasant Rest" is not an unusual name for a cemetery, there may be a connection between the "Pleasant Rest" Graveyard and Sunset Valley being called Pleasantview in The Sims 2.

In the center of the Pleasant Rest Graveyard, there is a desolate and ominous-looking Mausoleum of the Specter family (who may be related in some way to the Specter Family of Strangetown). Any Sim brave enough to venture into it can explore the Mausoleum to lay hand on unknown treasures which are rumored to be hidden deep in the abyssal bottom of it. An exploration takes anywhere from three to five hours. Its proceeding and outcome are random, but it often results in the Sim becoming singed.

Also, one can see a large Statue of the Grim Reaper.

Old Town CemeteryEdit

The cemetery is far less Gothic than Sunset Valley's Pleasant Rest Graveyard, and has no statue of the Grim Reaper. At night, ghosts will appear around the graveyard and they will move all across the island. This could spook your Sims if they are shopping late. The Riverview cemetery is also the largest cemetery found in any The Sims 3 neighbourhood, with some notable figures from Riverview families.

Ivy Hill Graveyard in Twinbrook.

Ivy Hill Graveyard is the cemetery of Twinbrook. It is always misty, with a very marshy environment typical of Twinbrook. There are Doric columns all over the cemetery. The mausoleum is in a corner of the lot, and it is decorated with Greek-styled columns. A statue of Grim Reaper rises from a pond at the border of the lot. Ivy Hill has many gravestones, but unlike previous cemeteries in The Sims 3 series, most of these are only remains objects with no deceased Sims attached. It also has a Sim who died from the Mummy's Curse, which is a little confusing to people who don't own World Adventures.

There is also a big pool of water in the center, and a gazebo-like building on the top-left corner of the cemetery.

Despite its large size, there are only a very few Sims buried in this cemetery, most of the headstones are only "Remains."
