*'''[[Death by old age|Old age]]''': A Sim who died of old age appears grey with cloudy skin and sparkles. These ghosts occasionally nap in empty beds or complain that they're tired and bored.
*'''[[Drowning]]''': A Sim who dies by drowning appears blue with rippling skin and dripping water (does not create puddles of water like they did in The Sims 2). They will avoid water and often complain of exhaustion.
*'''[[Electrocution]]''': A Sim who dies by electrocution appears yellow with electrical sparking skin and sometimes emit blue electric sparks. The ghost will act scared if it encounters broken electrical objects.
*'''[[Fire]]''': A Sim who dies by fire appears orange with fiery skin and smoke. Sims can die like this in many various ways, like spontaneous combustion, [[inventing]] failure, or [[meteor]] impact. The ghost occasionally takes showers and baths. When the ghost is in a pool, it turns invisible. {{confirm}}

===Playable ghosts===
[[File:Ghost Family.jpg|thumb|Ghost Family.]]
Ghosts can be resurrected to become playable using the [[Oh My Ghost!]] [[opportunity]].You can get this opportunity 2–3 days after the Sim dies. They can get married and have babies, including [[Ghost baby|ghost babies]]. As a playable character, the ghost will be added to the household, like a family member. They can then be resurrected as normal Sims if they are fed with [[Ambrosia]]. Ghosts who have lost their gravestones cannot be resurrected. In ''[[The Sims 3 (console)|The Sims 3]]'' for console, a ghost can be brought back to life by using the Divine Intervention Karma Power.<ref>[http://www.electronictheatre.co.uk/index.php/articles/6115-the-sims-3-karma-powers-detailed Electronic Theater: The Sims 3 Karma Powers Detailed]</ref> If a Sim in the player's household dies, that Sim will be playable
Ghost Sims carry their own tombstones in their inventory, and can never be removed from inventory. If the player no longer wishes for the ghost to be around, the ghost can be dismissed by simply clicking on it and selecting the 'Return to the Netherworld' option. This will revert the ghost to its remains, which will then need to be reburied or turned into an urn.
Line 162:
If the ''[[The Sims 3: Generations|Generations]]'' expansion pack is installed, a Sim who is good with the chemistry set or has a Ghost Potion in their inventory can turn into a ghost for three hours. While under the effects of the Ghost Potion, the Sim has the appearance of a ghost who died of old age and has all of the abilities of a true ghost; however, as they are not actually dead they do not have an urn in their inventory and therefore cannot use the "Return to the Netherworld" interaction.
If the ''[[The Sims 3: Supernatural|Supernatural]]'' expansion is installed, playable ghosts can be created in [[Create a Sim#The Sims 3|Create a Sim]], and their type of death can be chosen
At the initial release of ''The Sims 3'', ghosts were unable to become partners in or buy out businesses. However, in fully-updated games, ghosts can now purchase properties (including businesses) by using the "Check Real Estate" interaction on their cell phone.

===Ghost glitches===
In ''The Sims 3'', a glitch might occur; when a ghost is haunting the lot, they may continue to haunt the lot forever and never return to their graves. In order to send the ghost back to its grave, the player must activate "[[Testingcheatsenabled]]", hold down shift and left-click on the ghost. The player will see an option titled ''Force Object''; if it is selected, an option titled "Delete it" will become available
Another bug in the game causes ghosts on community lots to leave the lot and drive to a random unoccupied lot instead. The ghost will move onto the unoccupied space and then vanish. If the player attempts to interact with the ghost or clicks any interaction on it the ghost will disappear. Because of this bug, ghosts will no longer haunt the lot even if they are in a graveyard. This will also happen on unselected households.

{{Tip|Dead Sims can be resurrected by using the [[Book of Life]] and [[Ambrosia]].}}
