Line 154:
The Grim Reaper appears when a Sim or pet dies. However, unlike the previous games, the Grim Reaper will literally "reap" the spirit of the Sim to turn it into a [[ghost]], while the remaining Sims around the household or lot will mourn for him/her. The appearance of this ghost is determined by the way the Sim has died. Unlike previous games, a Sim can no longer plea for the dead Sim's life. However, if a Sim in the household owns a chessboard they may play chess against him to resurrect the dying Sim after a certain patch. The Grim Reaper may have 3-6 [[logic]] skill points and 3-6 hidden chess skill points.
If the deceased Sim has a [[death flower]] in their inventory, then they will automatically give it to the Grim Reaper shortly after becoming a ghost and their lives will be spared in exchange for the flower. If the Sim died of old age, their life stage is reset. The Grim Reaper will also refuse to take Sims with the [[unlucky]] [[Trait (The Sims 3)|trait]] who die accidentally, because (according to him) their lives provide too much amusement for himself.

Line 256:
*In ''[[The Sims 3]]'', a Sim can play chess with the Grim Reaper to resurrect the dying Sim. This is a reference to the movie The Seventh Seal or making a deal with Lord Loss from Darren Shan's Demonata.
*If one tries to experiment on him by using ''"testingcheatsenabled true"'' and uses the Trigger Age Transition, he will grow to be an adult but will not change appearance.
*Prior to a patch, a Sim could try for baby with the Grim Reaper.
*The Grim Reaper is not initially built-into a world, but is created by the game just after the player starts a new save.
*The Grim Reaper may have either peanut butter and jelly, tri-tip steak, or hot dogs as his favorite food, even though it's not normally possible to view this in-game.
Line 265 ⟶ 266:
*In ''The Sims 3: Pets'' trailer, the Grim Reaper is seen riding a horse and leaving through a portal. This happens when a horse dies. The Grim Reaper basically swishes his scythe and jumps onto the ghost horse and vanishes, much like how he vanishes the other ghosts. This is also shown in ''Pets'' cover.
*In ''[[The Sims 3: Seasons]]'', Sims can make a Grim Reaper snowman.
*In ''[[The Sims 3]]'', the music that plays when the Grim Reaper comes is similar to the [[wikipedia:Imperial March|Imperial March]] from [[wikipedia:
===The Sims 4===
*The Grim Reaper has a note chained onto his waist. This may be a reference to [[wikipedia:Ryuk (Death Note)|Ryuk]] in the [[wikipedia:Death Note|Death Note]] Japanese manga series.
*The Grim Reaper has a skeleton freezer bunny tied to his waist.
*The Grim Reaper may pet or play with a [[cowplant]] on the lot after a Sim has died, or use a [[Karaoke machine]].
*If the player pauses the game while the camera is locked on the Grim Reaper, there is a chance eerie music will play even though the game is paused.
*If the Grim Reaper is starved for several days, once his hunger bar reaches the lowest limit, he will fetch a biscuit from his bag and eat it, restoring his hunger bar. This way, it is impossible to starve the Grim Reaper to death. This also happens to pregnant Sims.
