Halloween Parade 2022!


So it's time for my favorite holidays again: Halloween followed by Día de Muertos (Day of the Dead).

Last year I enjoy this discussion so let's do it again. Do not forget that this year we have new guests: werewolves! <3

Do you celebrate Halloween or/and Día de Muertos in your game? In RL?

Share your photos of your occults, your non occults, your spooky lots, little stories or gameplay ideas until November 2 ;)

Have fun!

    I have a long standing tradition of staging sad screenshots of my police sims having to work at major holidays. I haven't decorated the actual police station from GTW, but my residential one (where some of my played cops' co-workers live) got a lone pumpkin and a candy jar:

    I love Halloween, and I celebrate it both in game and real life. Speaking of which, I always create a special Halloween sim on that day. The ones I created the last 2 years were both male, but I think this year we need to add a female freak to the ranks lol

    Halloween is not largely celebrated where I live (not by tradition)
    so I usually just have my own lowkey celebration of all things spooky

    light couple pumpkin laterns
    switch to dark/ autumnal decor
    have snackathon, maybe bake something
    watch spooky movies and listen to spooky music
    maybe read a spooky book or play some spooky sims
    cry about the fact that I cannot play makin' magic
    eat more snacks

    figure I've eaten too many snacks
    go on walk during eerie morning hours (for the vibes and lack of humanity)
    just so i can run away from whatever makes strange noise or seems otherwise suspicious

    get mad that winter and snow pretty much always arrives before halloween is over in this part of world
    be blanket burrito... snuggle my almost black cat...

    Oh and meet Greg and become werewolf.

    at least cat doesn't have to snooze alone now eh

    I also shall not have spider decor in my house there is way too many real spiders in these woods
    one walked over my phone as i was writing this and I feel attacked
    maybe I shall take some new halloween pics for my profile too hmn

    I've added All Hallows Eve to my Sims calendar but they keep being too busy to really enjoy it... last year was the epic feud between spellcasters, werewolves and vampires. This year... well, life is never quiet.

    Miranda is unimpressed...

    Fair point. Don't trust anyone.

    Ohhh yes I loooove me some occults! So much! But I have way too many spellcasters and werewolves and such to spam pictures of, so I'll hold off and just show a pic of my latest vampire, edited using the GShade graphics injector.

    Yes, Halloween was always my favorite holiday as a child. I wish we had a costume category, so we could choose any outfit we wanted each sim to wear, including townies, to Halloween, costume parties and at Geek con in City living.

    "Greggypoo"?

    Mmmm...is that what we're calling him now eh? 😅

    I don't celebrate this in RL, and neither in my game. Could have, because I think death is a very interesting subject, but I hardly focus on seasonal events at all due to my rotational game. But, I loved this thread, and will return to see more pictures :)

    Oh Dork can be such a dork sometimes.
    The wonderful thing is that good auld Rattles loves nothing better than being hunted by her own prey…especially when it’s a juicy pumpkin dragon cat….😈

    Neither IRL, Day of Dead was fun in TS4, but EA squished that ages ago.

    What's spookier, the fact that aliens can abduct and impregnate you anytime, or the fact that Stephen himself has completely taken over Victor's life-- Oh never mind, stop thinking about all that and just look at how cute he is...

    My build for the Halloween Shell Challenge by Kate Emerald:
    yGvo7qN.png

    I failed Kate's shell challenge miserably. :D

    We were supposed to use her blank shell and build/decorate with one colour only (black, orange, purple, or red), I chose the colour black (thinking that would be the easiest because there's plenty of black swatches)... but I had a heck of a time trying to stick to all one colour and ended up throwing a little bit of each colour in there.

    Anyways, if anyone wants it, you can download my build from the gallery. EA ID: AncientMuse2
