Zombie

The Sims
In the orignial sims, if a sim dies a loved one can plea to the Grim Reaper and engage in a rock-paper-scissors game for the life of the sim; if the sim loses the Grim Reaper may be merciful and bring back the deceased sim as a zombie. A zombie sim retains all of their skill points, but they lose all of their personality points, as well as gain a green tint to their skin. Besides this, zombies act like normal sims and can die...again like normal sims.

The Sims 2
Zombies are only available through The Sims 2: University, The Sims 2: FreeTime and The Sims 2: Apartment Life. In University, Zombies are made through use of the Paranormal career reward. Sims who died can be brought back over this hellish phone. If a Sim bids between §998 and §4127 simoleons when using the Resurrect-O-Nomitron, a dead Sim will come back to life as a zombie. In Freetime, if a Genie resurrect wish fails the Sim will return as a zombie. In Apartment Life, one of the evil witch spells is to bring a dead sim back as a zombie.

He or she returns with a blueish skintone, distorted facial features, and a set zombie Personality. Zombies cannot walk, skip, or run - they move with a zombie "shamble". Skill points are also lost. The new zombie Sim will have a lowered daily and lifetime relationship score towards the Sim who brought them back as a zombie. Zombies are only able to age if they are a Teen. They can get scholarships and go away to College, when they return they will stop aging therefore, they do not die of old age. Occasionally a Sim may react in a disgusted way when a zombie enters a room.
