Hmm well I have wanted to do a subterranean house. And are you looking for a ghost? Cause I don't have Vampires.
I think you could probably get away with designing a human to look like a vampire. Even without the expansion/stuff pack, there are some outfits that are elegant/outdated enough to work, and you could certainly tweak the facial features and hairstyles to work together. (I'm not a big fan of the "weirder" Halloween-esque looks on the vampires myself, so I rarely use them, even for my vampires' transformed state.) Caleb Vatore is one of my favorite vampires in the game, and his normal look is pretty reproduceable with a human.
EDIT: On further inspection, this is DEFINITELY doable! Mostly, because I didn't realize you can't make a vampire from the get-go in CAS. Shows how often I use vampires. XD I'm having to start with a human and then cheat the vampire trait once he's placed.
The normal sim in CAS is a throw away, when you make an alien or vampire . The second sim you make has the option to be created as an occult.
Make the vamp toss the other sim.
Yes, but why should you need to toss a sim? It should be an option from the get-go, just like it was in Sims 3 with occult sims. I never had to throw away a sim to make the head of house a fairy or other type. While I was looking for a solution, I also found people who were frustrated about having tweaked a sim's appearance just right and then changed their mind about them being vampire/human - then having to throw them away just as you said. It was there I discovered you can't even make a twin of the original sim to play with vampire traits or dark forms before you decide, because it makes the twin human automatically.
I know plenty of simmers have posted that they can make a sim in five minutes, but I am one who takes a long time to make just the right decisions on facial features, hair, makeup, etc. It's a lot quicker and easier to use the cheat, try them as a vampire, and if I decide I like that, modify their dark form in advanced CAS through the cheats if necessary.
I agree it's not an ideal process. The lack of ability to make a vampire from the get go strikes me as incomplete. So is the lack of an in-game vampire/alien/both toggle, it feels incomplete to me too.

He wants to be the leader of the pack in popularity. He is also a snob, an insider, and a music lover! When he said he hosted art events, he really meant it...but art that you can relate to, maybe not so much! His piercing green eyes and smooth, deep voice make Seth memorable even before you get to know him! And you should hear him play the piano!

Welcome to the Pettigrew Family Cemetery! It may seem a little dark or spooky at first, but it IS a cemetery! No, the gate around the property is to keep unwanted visitors out, I assure you. And we have been invited! Yes, it is a mausoleum, you are right. But, trust me, there is more to see here than just what is on the surface! No, come back! Take my hand if you feel frightened. It really is a beautiful place inside! Just through this door… Umm, well…yes, there are bodies in those coffins. But we are going to the hidden stairs behind the coffins. Don’t lose your nerve now! This is definitely worth a look! This is a two bedroom home with two full baths and two half baths! It is truly unique, and I am proud to say I designed it!

I'm going to chalk this one up to a case of GMTA. @iampes23! I think we chose similar traits and had similar ideas about the walls. Great job, BTW. Didn't get to work on mine today because I was at my grandmother's birthday party.
Crud. I just re-read the challenge post. How particular is Seth about the quality of the fence? I had developed a picture in my head of more natural barriers to entry when I was reading through it the first time, but now I'm starting to wonder if it has to be an actual fence-fence.
Normally, I'd just slap one in extra, but I ran right up to the edge of the budget with this build, so I'll need to tweak some things to make more budget if I need to add one.
ETA: FWIW, what I currently have apparently works...Seth invited everyone he knew to his first house party, hired a mixologist and a caterer, and the mixologist was the only person who showed. I searched his entire house and property for everyone else, and no one else showed. I suspect my visitor/prowler deterrents might be a bit too effective.

I'm going to chalk this one up to a case of GMTA. @iampes23! I think we chose similar traits and had similar ideas about the walls. Great job, BTW. Didn't get to work on mine today because I was at my grandmother's birthday party.
I have a feeling a lot of us will be doing something similar. It is Halloween soon, and he does SEEM to be a vampire. Thanks very much!!
@SyddyB206 So if I were, to say make my build in a grave yard and a want a building that wont be housing his basement to have windows, would that be okay?
Just to clarify for the judges--this building with windows would be in addition to his home, and not necessarily a building he would be using?
@Sawdust : Your entry totally blew me off the map! Great build!
@SimsIslandheart: love the shapes of your home!!! I was not expecting that! Anything I was not expecting is awesome!!
@SimTresa: Love that your Seth is red-haired!!! I know, Buffy lovers unite. LOL
@Green_Girly100: I really wish there had been more pictures! But I liked what I saw very much!
Amazingly we have many different builds so far--very unique! I love them all!!

I agree it's not an ideal process. The lack of ability to make a vampire from the get go strikes me as incomplete. So is the lack of an in-game vampire/alien/both toggle, it feels incomplete to me too.

Though in recent years he has come to love his privacy, inviting only a select few into his home on his own terms, Seth once thrived on chaos, enjoying crowds and activity. He once led a cult, but when their hideout was raided, Seth disappeared and left that life behind him, reinventing himself yet again as an eccentric loner with a love of art and antiques.
(Chaos, war, and cults are all references to the Egyptian god Seth/Set/Setesh)

Ranging from classic and modern art pieces through to antiques and oddities, the Gallery is also the main entertaining area with piano and Globe Bar.

I have a feeling a lot of us will be doing something similar. It is Halloween soon, and he does SEEM to be a vampire. Thanks very much!!
@SyddyB206 So if I were, to say make my build in a grave yard and a want a building that wont be housing his basement to have windows, would that be okay?
Just to clarify for the judges--this building with windows would be in addition to his home, and not necessarily a building he would be using?
@Sawdust : Your entry totally blew me off the map! Great build!
@SimsIslandheart: love the shapes of your home!!! I was not expecting that! Anything I was not expecting is awesome!!
@SimTresa: Love that your Seth is red-haired!!! I know, Buffy lovers unite. LOL
@Green_Girly100: I really wish there had been more pictures! But I liked what I saw very much!
Amazingly we have many different builds so far--very unique! I love them all!!
Sorry, wrong fandom. This was a case of "Redheads are evil/have no souls" meets Stargate SG-1's version of Seth.
C captures the screenshot.
Do you remember how to control the camera, or is it just taking the actual screenshot you forgot how to do?
You're welcome.
I mostly use the arrow controls for left, right, back and forward, but you can also use A, S, D and W.
