Default Try To Survive Challenge
I had a dream about it and i thought it was cool.

1st build a mansion, and make it as old looking as you can and inhabit it with a family(however large you want it) then kill them off this way you have ghost floating around hehe( you don't have to do this step if you do not want too)

The creat a bunch of adults(6-8) and move them in. Typical horror movie plot.
Group of teens or young adults goes to party in a strange old house. they are pating and when it is time to leave, doors are locked. So they are trapped in the house and can't leave. If you do have ghosts, they will scare the sims. Goal is to have only 1sim survive this night mare.

You can:
Use whatever custom content you want.
Use move objects on to fix bugs
Use money cheat only once! this is when you move your sims in.

You can't:
Contact the outside world. If you run out of food get a new fridge. No phone or computers
Use insim to kill them. They must die pure accidents.
Can't repeat type of deaths. If one burned by fire cooking, the other must drown then, the other must get eaten by bugs and etc.
You must not help them in anyways to die. As in remove ladders lock them in the rooms and etc.

FREE WILL MUST BE ON!

It is kind of cruel challenge I admit. I tried it. I had a gothic girl that survived she had aspiration failure though >_>

Points:
+10 for every time you manage to survive(ex. almost burned but run out of the room or something)
+5 for every friend you make
+5 for saving your friends( ex. estinguish fires)
+20 if you manage to save your friend from GR
+25 if through out the challenge specific sim didn't cause any accidents at all.

-10 if you lose a friend
-15 if a friend dies and you couldn't save them
-15 causing accidents
-20 if more then one sims die in the same accident

you lose all scores if all sims died.

I hope some one tries it. it will be a perfect challenge if you want to get rid of the oogly sims in your NH :D

You know, Deatherella, I'm not usually a big fan of these type of Sim beauty remarks. Some folks tend to hold their Simmies to pretty stringent standards about what's pretty. At times seemingly tighter than real people are even held. But you are so right. This is a perfect challenge for getting rid of those "ugly" sims. Was one of the the first thoughts in my mind actually. "Oooooh, our shallow folks will love this." Bravura, Kyle, for this great brianstorm.

Default The Haunted House Challenge
This is just a test of a challenge.
You move into a house over 80 years old. It's obviously creepy and big, and (possibly) has a Victorian theme to it. You buy this house from the whatever-you-call-those-people-who-sell-houses, and you notice them wiping their brow. You take a look at the house... and discover it is actually more modern than you thought. But when you take a look in the back there are tons of graves! You decide all the weird activity in the house is just a coincidence....

Start out by making random Sims, and killing them, boolprop-ing their deaths, however you want. I prefer boolprop-ing them, because you can choose from the different deaths. You can kill as many as you want, but kill AT LEAST nine. Killing 20 is recommended, if you want it harder, kill more.
After killing all those Sims, build a house. Make it eerie and big. If you have Nightlife, using the House of Fallen Trees works well with this challenge's theme. Then, make a Simself/Random Sim/Townie/WHOEVER. You could make a whole family for maximum effect, if you are a sadist.

The Rules
DO NOT make a Sim with Family Aspiration. They will FREAK if someone dies. Toddlers and Children get affected by this as well, so if you don't want to make them, that's okay.
TRY NOT to get pregnant. It's a pain in the neck to have babies in a freaking haunted house. They pee ALL the time. If you're so desperate, or have a Risky Woohoo hack, go ahead.
DO NOT delete or move the graves. It's the whole point of the game, to have ghosts.
DO NOT make a Knowledge Sim. They won't be scared AND seeing ghosts gives them a score advantage.

Scoring
+1000 points for each Sim surviving at the end.
+100 points for each time your Sim(s) go into Platinum Aspiration.
+500 for each job advance
+500 for reaching LTW (another good reason not to have Family Sims!)
+50 for every time a Ghost scares your Sim and that Sim survives.
+1 for each ghost activity noticed by you, and for every Ghost sighting.
-1000 if you end the game with no Sims.
-100 every time your Sim(s) goes into Red or Deep Red.
-500 if you get fired.
-500 if a relative or best friend of yours dies in your house for ANY REASON.
-100 if a random townie/NPC or friend of yours dies in your house for ANY REASON.
-10 if you die besides Old Age or Fright.
-100 if you die of Fright.

Game ends if all the Sims die, or you reach elderhood.

I'll give this a try. But, I foresee on problem. What about knowledge sims? They won't be scared by ghosts, so you should ban them. I think I'll make a Couple. I'll keep you posted on how it goes. I'm not scoring though. I'll just have fun.

I have a n00b question. I haven't played this game long enough to have any human ghosts. I also haven't done my favourite scenario from TS1, which was to kill of sixteen or twenty-four sims on a lot in historical clothing, and then move in the groundskeeper and his little gothy daughter.

Anyways, what is it that the current family is going to have trouble surviving? Can ghosts kill them? Do they die of fright or is it something else?

They die of if a ghost scares them, unless its a knowledge sim

Not necessarily. It can happen, but it may not. One of my child Sims got scared by a ghost (of her mother, actually) and she lived.

Ask me about my Luigi Largo Sim.
I'll tell you about the Satanic snowman he made in college. And how he loves cleaning the toilet.

Being a Knowledge sims doesn't make you less likely to die of fright. It just makes the scare a positive memory instead of a negative one.

When a sim gets scared there is an 8% hit to each of Hunger, Bladder, Energy, Hygiene and Comfort. After the scare, if 4 or more of the sim's motives (looking at all motives including Environment, Social and Fun) are below 30%, the sim dies. The only exception is children who still take the same motive hit but can't die of fright.

On my site I have dozens more Sims 2 mods. These mods come with no support so use them at your own risk.

Okay, so there's a chance that a ghost can kill them by scaring.

How do you make sure that a person on the lot sees a ghost? Buffy the dog was floating around the lot and I made several people go outside to where she was, but they didn't see her. Even though she was digging ghostly holes in the lawn. XD
