The Crumplebottom family (sometimes written CrumpleBottom family) is a refined, sophisticated, and dignified family from Pleasantview. In most of their depictions, they seem to carry themselves as the most civilized people in town, sometimes even acting haughty. The family's last name hints towards the family's "uptight" behavior, suggesting that if a nearby sim acts immodestly or in a wild manner, a family member would get his or her "bottom" in a "crumple." The known members are Prudence, Simon, Agnes, Mrs. Crumplebottom and Cornelia Goth (née Crumplebottom).
During their lifetime, the Crumplebottoms lived in Sunset Valley and Pleasantview, but in The Sims 2 all of them are deceased save Mrs. Crumplebottom, said to be a distant relation to the rest of the family. Although she is the only true Crumplebottom left in-game, the family's blood still runs in the prominent Goth Family. It is, however, implied that there are more distant family members still alive, although their identities are currently unknown.
In The Sims 3, Agnes Crumplebottom, the aunt of Mortimer Goth, makes an appearance as a young adult. Her parents are deceased and buried in her sister's home. Cornelia is married to Gunther with a son named Mortimer. At the start, Agnes is mourning the death of her young husband Erik Darling, who expired due to Drowning. After her sad lifetime she probably died alone, with no children, as Mortimer and his children in The Sims 2 don't have any memories of her.
In the town of Moonlight Falls, three sister witches will appear. Beatrice is the oldest and very set in her grumpy ways. Belinda is as good natured a person as you could ever meet and often fills the role of family peacekeeper. Meanwhile, Bianca is a bit of a spitfire and all about flirting her way through life. They seem to be a Sim spoof of the Halliwell sisters from Charmed.
There is a street named Crumplebottom Drive on the campus of Sim State University, perhaps implying some philanthropic work by the family for the university. There is also a tree named after the Crumplebottom Family.
The Crumplebottom family were referenced in The Sims Medieval. A skilled Bard can perform a song named "Crumplebottom Waltz" with a fiddle.
