#5 Avoid creating dead houses if you can. You will no longer be able to move anyone into those houses.
OK. Lastly: If anyone has a way to speed up the 7 day wait for OMG, please tell me! [[User:TheCallOfScaryStuff|TheCallOfScaryStuff]] ([[User talk:TheCallOfScaryStuff|talk]]) 03:17, October 1, 2016 (UTC)
 
ok. Here's the thing. I've run this experiment many times. Varying factors; age,sex, race (in the case of monsters) time of death..etc.. and the results seem to be...<u>that a Married couple....with an adult sibling</u> (on either side) will survive as a Ghost house IF! The sibling is left alive to get the Oh My Ghost opportunity. Also...very important...everyone must have the "family oriented" trait. This ensures that the family (even after you've murdered the married couple) will not only survive multiple "change active household" modes, but importantly: you'll get your OMG opportunity in 2 DAYS, not 7.
 
Monster households seems to do alright by themselves; ie...you can create a monster family, paste them in and let it run.
 
I've found that there seems to be several factors that are important:
 
1. "make me know everyone" plus raising the relationship bar
 
2. money, a job and getting started on the skills. You have to wait a couple of days. make sure they actually go to work the first time, finish that painting (or whatever)t...etc....
 
3. "make friends for me" is ok...but not as effective as combo of 1 and 2.
 
Problem: The Bunchs'. I've done everything I just wrote with them. I've made sure that the kids start school. I even stuck around long enough to get Ghost Mr. Bunch and Ghost Mrs. Bunch back together AND have a ghost baby. They simply will not stay in town after they're all dead. (Except for the older boy, I "age transitioned" him so he could hold a steady job for the family.)
 
Given this info, it would seem that the "married couple with adult sibling" is the key to creating and keeping ghost families in your town.
 
(I recently decided that if I couldn't keep ghost families, I'd simply create them by having 1 live and 1 ghost get married. I created a group of 4 sisters. I killed 3 of them and am waiting for OMG. In the meantime, I've married the surviving sister to a male ghost...also important...without the hack....same sex couples cannot have kids. I am hoping that the marriage will have staying power with the program so that when I change active households, they won't simply vanish. Meanwhile, I'll get the married couple to have a ghost baby AND...if the household stays, I'll have 3 young, eligible ghost ladies to marry into the community...wish me luck!)
 
(by the way...no one has replied to my request for help so I figure no one has read it or...whatever....anyway...I'm using the wikia as a record of my experiements...if you aren't interested, no worries...)[[User:TheCallOfScaryStuff|TheCallOfScaryStuff]] ([[User talk:TheCallOfScaryStuff|talk]]) 09:58, October 4, 2016 (UTC)
