Ways to Bring Sims Back to Life in The Sims 4 

Did you know that you can hold a funeral? If you have high charisma, the podium from City Living, and the sim's grave, if you click the grave, and click hold funeral it works! I hope it helps! NOTE: IT DOESN'T BRING YOUR SIM BACK TO LIFE

“I’m gonna have to kill a lot of sims today”*yes that’s a pretty common thing for you simsie*

I had a sim who spend their entire life trying to catch some angel fish to resurrect their loved one. Her kids grown up and eventually didn’t even really knew their mother. Her parents died, her friends abandoned her (hell yeah dis lady is damn crazy over fishing AND necromancy). One day she decided to move forward and actually married another man (both in age of almost an elder). Very next night after wedding a ghost of her first husband scared her to death. Since this story I’m just deleting the whole safe if someone important dies, screw that.

Just giving Grim a death flower instead of pleading regularly also brings sims back to life

Ah yes, Sims death. I trust no one but simsie to teach us about it.

Why am I not surprised that Stanley was the chosen resurector?

Maybe you don't know but if your sim is flirty when someone dies, he or she can seduce grim reaper to save life the person who dies :) I did it in my game recently

Fun fact about the wishing well if you wish for a child and the wishing well is set to give horrible outcomes it spawns a ghost child

I love how Standley is always the sim to go through all of lilsimsies evil plans.

I highly recommend James Turner YT’s video entitled “When Everything Goes Wrong in the Sims 4”. It includes many of the same shenanigans trying to bring Sims back to life. And never fails to make me laugh so hard that I cry.

My sim was a max spellcaster and lived in a haunted apartment. I just turned everyone that haunted me back to life with that spell - dedeathify :D

For the book, a living sim needs to use the book to "Summon" the sim that died. I think it only works on "Free Range" ghosts.

"never used dedeathify to bring back a sim" - literally brought back her simself in the 100 baby challenge using magic. not just one of the other heirs, Lil Simsie the final heir was brought back using dedeathify

For a pomegranate you can buy one when trying to purchase gifts, I've fished up deathflowers and found them in rare seed packets -rarely (pun intended). But have not managed to find the fish... but I don't fish often....

You can also buy pomegranates at the produce stand in city living and sometimes at the grocery/farm stands in cottage living.

I’m very early because I had nightmares and woke up at 4 am yeah woo

The well giving you an angelfish reminds me of James Turner's Seasons LP. He had like 16 spliced plants trying to grow orchids for several episodes. Then one of the sims checked Patchy's pockets for seeds and pulled out 3 orchids. . . 😆

I'd love to see a rags to riches where Stanley breeds and sells cats and dogs. I don't think it's been done yet? :)

If your mood is confident, you can Demand the sim to be spared to Grim or something. Has worked for me :D

I once made a teen girl sim use the well to wish for love, and it gave her a teen ghost boyfriend. I added him to my household and tried and tried and TRIED to bring him to life but the game kept saying no and giving him buffs basically saying that he’d never come back to life 🙃 it was truly tragic

You used a spellcaster to bring a sim back to life in the 100 baby challenge!

You can also have a Death Flower and give it to the Grim Reaper to save sims!! (note: not in the dead sims inventory. it has to be a family member!)

Just an FYI: -You can use testingcheats to change the growth state and quality of plants. -You can also use it to turn off the cool down and Force Outcomes on the wishing well

i’m not positive but i think you can also get a death flower from that like rare level 10 seed packet thing

4:45 Don't you have to click on "restore life" when you select the book?

You can’t write a book of life for yourself, but the ghost has to be the one to read it. They need to use the restore life interaction, not just read it. Also, Dedeathify is the bomb. I made my Super Sim’s mom both write the book and become a caster as life insurance. Also she’s a gardener with death flowers and maxed fishing, gardening, cooking, and gourmet cooking. I may have gone overboard. 😉

I am not joking I’ve watched more than 10 of Kayla’s videos today and it’s been great! 🤣

You can give the grim reaper a death flower! He’ll bring your sim back to life that way!!

If you have a rose you can offer that to grim and then there’s a higher chance he’ll let your sim live. If you give him a death flower it’s 100% chance he’ll let your sim live

"I'm gonna have to kill a lot of Sims today" lmao

Me who has played the game for 5 years but still watches all of these fun fact videos

I’d love to see another part of the processes of reviving from other packs!

To resurrect a Sim, the selected Sim must first master their Writing skill and complete the "Bestselling Author" aspiration. Once they have done this, there is an option to write The Book of Life on the computer. When the book is written, Sims can use the book to "Capture Epic Saga" of a Sim who has not died. After a Sim dies, the owner of the book can use it to "Summon" the Sim who died. If the book is used on a Sim that is still alive, the book "invigorates" the Sim, by completely filling all their need bars.

when u pulled out Stanley I was like 🙂 she better not kill the poor man he’s been through too much 😩

It is random wether or not pleading works. I had a sim plea for someone she hated, figuring it would not work, and maybe burn a “no,” from Grimm, and Grimm let him live. My sim was in an awful mood, and on really bad terms with him. She plead for her mom a week later, as a friends with Grimm (both her, and her mom), and she was not spared.

The lots in Sulani with the ocean paradise lot trait are where I have had the best luck finding angel fish

i literally was just thinking about this and you uploaded it!!! thanks so much!!!

On my way home from work the other day, I saw a kid riding a bike, wearing a hot dog costume... all I could think was Stanley!

I recently created a new sim for cottage living, and when she got married, I had her and her husband go on a honeymoon to the little inn near the waterfall in Henford-On-Bagley, only to have her husband *laugh to death* Never again will any of my sims have the Goofball trait

An easy way to get the angelfish is from the stalls in realm of magic. If you go to the ingredients shop it's one of the things you can sometimes buy. Idk about other ingredients though.

This was highly entertaining and one of my favorite videos from you. Thanks!

i had a halloween save last year with a witch (spellcaster), a mermaid, a vampire, an alien, and a girl dressed as a pirate. the witch's vampire gf burnt in the sun and died, so had her practice magic to bring her back omg it was so romantic

You can also give a death flower to the Grim Reaper and it will always bring back a Sim also if you're confident you can demand to bring back the SIM

This one time I tried to make Ambrosia, it took me 4 essence of life just to maxed out the skills. My cowplant garden helps a lot.

SIMSIE I LOVE YOU SO MUCH!! THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO 😭🤍

Not even a minute in: "Stanley and Geoffrey now despise each other!" Yeah, no, that seems about right.

I'm pretty sure for the book of life you have to capture the sims epic tail before that sim dies.

love how you can go though all that trouble for the death flower OR just be a spellcaster and by it in their world

Usually I play spellcasters, but a while ago I had a sim who was not occult. He found a wife, married her on Christmas morning, and in the evening when Santa came around she got hysterical from autonomous belly laughs and died. I looked up how to make ambrosia and was like "that takes way too long" (I think I was playing short lifespan in that save too) so I decided to make him a spellcaster and learn necrocall and dedeathify. Glad those exist. Since sims get married untill death do them apart, so he was single but still had a buff on being sad due losing soulmate. And then the game got a bit weird when I rekindled their relationship again, being widow, soulmate, first kiss, boyfriend and all that at the same time, lol. XD Another save game I had a sim die of old age, plead to grim and got her back... and she died again literally the next morning (of old age again). -__-

This video was pure chaos and I love it

"Or you could just use mods!" *Cries in console*

Daaang girl your skin is looking glowy and gorgeous! I look forward to your uploads so much! ❤️

Also keeping a death flower or death knitted doll in your inventory guarantees success when pleading with Grim.

Getting ambrosia seems like a fun challenge, I’m glad it’s possible to actually resurrect Sims in an easily understandable way. I wonder what methods there are in the Sims 3? I’m pretty sure with Supernatural you can learn to craft an Elixir of Life and use that to resurrect Sims but other than that I’m not sure, you can also make some other nifty elixir’s like a curing elixir which fixes zombiesm and a lot of other afflictions.

While eco lifestyle trail I discovered how to skip and make plants fully grown in best quality via a simple testingcheats cheat and clicking at the plants just as u do it at ur Sim to fill their needs. I found the ingredients in the debug. Unfortunately, I know as well the cheats for the skills and the satisfaction points. 😅 I should really post an ambrosia room as well 👩‍💻 - but thanks for the pure and honest gameplay explanation dear ♥️😅

i swear after spending a week in-game trying to get that damn fish, getting the spellcaster to learn the spell was a breeze

Realm of Magic allows spellcasters to learn and use a spell called dedeathify which brings ghosts back to life!

quickest way to bring your sim back to life : hold shift (under caps lock buton) and click on dead sim. Go into the "cheat sim infos..." section and select "remove trait". As the cause of death of a sim appears as a trait, you'll be able to delete it, resurrecting your sims immediately.

Once you grow a death flower bush it keeps blooming as long as you care for it, you can get a huge amount of flowers from it if you talk to it alot, my serial killer sim got over 100 of them in a short time, he is also bff with the grim reaper so any sim he kills can be brought back immediately, they hate him but they still live.

I love the glimmer of Kayla’s ring making an appearance in her videos 🤩🤩

This video was hilarious!!

I exactly needed this Video now. :D

Love this video!

I’m honestly not even that surprised about this video it was bound to happen.

You could give the death flower to the grim reaper while they are about to take your sim, that works too.

One time my Sim lived in a haunted apartment, and she was training in magic. So she used the De-Deathify spell on the ghost. Bam! No more haunting. :)

I knew about the plead but never the others haha, fun to know. The ambrosia is useful. The spellcaster is also fun to know.

Happy spooky season!🎃🎃

I thought this was so funny but also helpful thank you 😊

How did I never think about uploading/downloading rooms with items on them? That's so clever!

Thank you so so much, it worked a treat, i used the ambrosia method.

Instead of the ambrosia you can just give from a death flower. And that works. As well as you can get all the flowers and fruits you need for ambrosia in seed packets too. You don’t need to splice

having cottage living makes ambrosia so much easier, you can buy the plants needed from the garden shop and i literally got the angelfish from a gift the birds gave my sim. i also got the death flower from a rare seed packet but that's basegame.

I just got my Merch and I LOVE it 💗

Omg u saved my life TYSM 💓💓 or should I say u saved my sim’s life? 🤭

the Landgraabs sleeping outside at the end of the video made me laugh

A little question: Is it possible to bring Guidry the ghost back to life? I currently am trying to do it with ambrosia in one of my saves

My go-to method is the 'exit without saving if pleading doesn't work' 😂 All the others would take too much time and motivation for me

Just knew Stanley would be in this 😂

I love this video and it's so on brand for Kayla :)

i completely forgot you needed an angelfish for ambrosia and it was hard to do. at the moment my sim loves fishing and it’s a rags to riches so i’ve just been getting so many of them and i’ve sold every single one i caught, they’re neighbours to the spencer kim lewis family and it’s the first fishing spot you’d see on the side i always make them fish at if you were wondering where

omg your eyes are like forest... sooooo beautiful!

i love how stanley, nancy and malcolm were just sleeping outside at the end of it

Ty ! 😊

You can buy pomegranates from the produce stands in San Myshuno sometimes too

Best video you ever made 😮‍💨

i like the idea of traumatizing my sims by killing them, reviving them, killing them, reviving them, that sorta thing. (: i'm thinking of doing something where i kill them in every way eg: drown them, revive them, burn them, revive them, make them laugh, revive them, embarrass them, revive them, starve them, revive them, ya know.. that stuff... i would love to see lilsimsie do that

I love these videos

you can buy pomegranates at the market in cottage living too! i also think you can get the death flower there but im not sure

You can get the death flower from the cauldron and from rare plants seeds as well. How the cauldron works, when you can't learn any more potions for the level you are on, experimenting will give you ingredients for potions. If you have learned all of the potions, you'll get ingredients when you experiment.

You can also for the death flower get rare seeds and can possibly be a death flower seed in them, but you have to be level 10 in Garden.

I feel... vaguely dirty for laughing at this as much as I did.

If you have City Living you can sometimes find Pomegranates, Lilies, and Orchids at the Spice Festival or the Romance Festival. It's also possible to get Orchids from space exploration if you have a rocket. *Both of these methods also sometimes provide Cowplant Berries and UFO plants for future reference.

So I was just gonna order the grey boo sweater but it’s sold out 😞 I hope there’s a restock would love to grab one. Also love how the pleading doesn’t work when you try to make a video for it but worked in the let’s play😂

Please do a video showing all the deaths and organize it by packs !

1:48 the way he is laughing after saying no 💀

Yay new vid!

I'm sorry but the ENORMOUS crowd of people on the road weeping over the landgraabs took me out 🤣

Faster way to the Death Flower, you can totally buy a pomegranate from the garden shop in Henford on Bagley. Also, the fishing spot in Evergreen Harbor...the one that mostly has fencing around it (playable lot super close by), is full of Angelfish. I swear, I caught so many just letting my sims fish for fun. In a different file, I needed ambrosia. Tried Willow Creek and nothing. Showed up there and had one in no time.

Thanks for the tip on how to resurrect a Sim (even if they all didn't work). I learned a few ways I wasn't aware of before.
