Line 30:
Mrs. CrumpleBottom is a very old-fashioned, stern, and strict woman who appears to abide by a [[wikipedia:Victorian morality|moral code from the Victorian Era]]. She detests when two Sims have any romantic interactions in public. When Mrs. CrumpleBottom sees any of these actions taking place on a community lot, she will promptly scold the Sims or beat them with her purse. If a Sim innocently wanders out in his/her underwear or bathing suit, Mrs. CrumpleBottom will lecture him/her until he/she changes back into his/her everyday clothes. For this reason, the player may not want to make a public pool as a Downtown lot. Mrs. CrumpleBottom loves to knit, and she will usually knit as an idle animation when she's not doing anything.
Mrs. CrumpleBottom may not even be a Sim in the strictest sense of the word. She cannot be interacted with by any Sim, and will lecture Sims who want to interact with her. Upon being bitten by a vampire, Mrs. CrumpleBottom has the same stricken gesture as any other bitten Sim, however she does not convert and remains the same as if she were immune to the bite. In addition, game corruption may occur if she is bitten. It is believed that this is because of the game treating her as an object instead of a Sim.<ref>Her character file is located in the objects.package file.</ref>

If the player has ''[[The Sims 2: Seasons]]'' expansion pack, a Sim may wish for Romance from a [[Wishing Well|wishing well]]. There is a 50% chance that Mrs. CrumpleBottom will crawl out of the well and hit the Sim with her purse.

==Preventing the Purse==
Line 55 ⟶ 57:
#Cancel her action before she can complete it. She is an old woman, so she is slow. While she is walking toward your Sim(s), X out her action by clicking on it. It is a picture of her at the top left corner. Many experienced Simmers know this. If she is running toward them, pause the game and X out her action. Try to overwrite it by making the Sim(s) do something else like talk to each other. She will still yell at them, but they won't notice because of the action they are doing at the moment.
#Use boolProp TestingCheatsEnabled true, then use force error on her. This cheat can be used to delete her from the lot. This has worked, though it is unknown if it will cause glitches or corruptions in the game. Unfortunately, doing that doesn't ensure she won't come back.
#Have a date on a community lot located in the main
#Use of [http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=278816 this mod] from ModTheSims will prevent her from spawning in the game. The mod does not do anything harmful, just modifies the code that tests to see if she should be spawned so it always says that she shouldn't. This will not prevent the ''Seasons'' wishing well from having the failure flame when a romance wish fails, but she will not be spawned.

Line 64 ⟶ 66:
If the player has the ''[[Bon Voyage]]'' expansion pack installed in the game, a new character is introduced. The [[Unsavory Charlatan]], a venturing scam artist, just seems to be attracted to sweet ol' Mrs. CrumpleBottom and if both of these characters are in the same lot he will try to have his way with her and serenade the "sweet" old lady, in which he'll end up being beat by one of Mrs. CrumpleBottom's famous purse-whippings. These ridiculous interactions may give the player some time to finish up in the lot and head home to safety.

==Clothing==
Line 73:
In the spin-off game, [[w:c:mysims:MySims|MySims]], Mrs. CrumpleBottom makes a cameo as a costume. There is a dress that resembles hers along with a hat with hair in a bun like hers. There are also eyes that look like those of an elderly person along with a craggy mouth. [[Elmira Clamp]] is also the niece of Mrs. CrumpleBottom and appears to have adopted a somewhat similar personality partially due to being babysat by her.
In ''The Sims 3'', there is a purchasable book named "The Crumpleottom Legacy". This may be a reference to Mrs. CrumpleBottom and her relatives.
==Personal life==
One question that is often wondered about by inquisitive simmers is "If her name is Mrs. CrumpleBottom, then who was her husband?" There are many rumors around the community, and here are some of the most prominent:
*She was possibly married to the famous puppeteer and philanthropist, [[Robert Crumplebottom]] (mentioned in ''[[The Sims: Hot Date]]'' and ''[[The Sims: Vacation]]''). During his Winter Charity Event, a chandelier dropped two full stories and ended his short yet inspiring life. His demise could have made Mrs. CrumpleBottom very sad, and made her very cranky and hateful towards love.
