...there are living ghosts?

Hmm...

Yes

[NRDL]

Explain.  Both of them.

Living Ghosts are ghost sims you control

Dead Ghosts are ghost Sims you do not control.

Honestly I have no idea if I should be spoilering this... Since... It was such common knowledge on the Sims boards even before the game came out.

[Trapezohedron]

You should probably unspoiler it, in my opinion.

[NRDL]

I did not read those boards.  Please explain the specifics, such as how to become either one.

Your sim needs to die first, then wait until a revivifaction opportunity comes up (forgot the name and specifics, it was a long time ago.) Then you'll have to pay a hefty fee and bring the gravestone to the science lab (keep in inventory)

The wiki has more to tell, but that's the gist of it.

[Neonivek]

Well just make sure that your family members have a strong bond.

When one of them dies in an unfornate accident... you will know what to do.

THOUGH there is another way. But it is a bit tougher.

[NRDL]

...These methods are slightly conflicting, and somewhat vague.

Well, I stopped playing this a long time ago, when it's expansion pack was only world adventures. The one that I posted would be the vanilla sims 3's methods of resurrection. Don't know if the other is an Ambitions exclusive, or my brain is playing tricks with me.

I have an evil sim who married his criminal boss.
He now writes novels about moronic crabs.

[ASCIt]

I did that one thing, so I like to think I'm a bit experienced with this.

Basically, if a living Sim and a dead sim are good friends, you'll eventually get an opportunity to take their grave to the laboratory and pay an obnoxious sum to "bring them back" as a playable ghost. They still age, technically, but they only have one life cycle change and it sends them "back to the underworld" or something. From what I remember, their grave goes back to being a regular grave, and you can eventually pay to bring them back again, but I'm not totally positive.

[Trapezohedron]

If I recall correctly, they can be fully resurrected by feeding them ambrosia.

[ASCIt]

I do believe that you're right. I also think it's possible to do so with "dead" ghosts, no?

[Trapezohedron]

Well, I haven't tried feeding the neighbor ghosties with life enhancing foods during my playthrough, since I was kind of a bit of a hoarder for those hard-to-get ingredients, but I think it also works on them.
