[[Image:Ghost and money.jpg|thumb|284px|The bottom of the gravestone shows the knife, fork, and plate.]]'''Starvation''' occurs when a Sim has gone too long without eating. In ''[[The Sims]]'' and ''[[The Sims 2]]'', Sims starve when their [[Hunger]] [[motive]] has become completely depleted. In ''The Sims 2'', this can happen from prolonged exposure to an "evil" [[Snapdragon Bouquet|snapdragon bouquet]]{{vgversion|TS2:OFB}}, after a failed wish for money from a [[Wishing Well]]{{vgversion|TS2:S}}, or when a good or evil [[witch]] sits on an opposite-alignment throne for too long{{vgversion|TS2:AL}}. However, these things will usually not cause a Sim to starve unless their Hunger motive is already low.
In ''The Sims 2'', the [[ghost]] of a Sim who died of starvation will be a transparent white. These ghosts will open and close the fridge, and will take food. These ghosts get angry if there is no fridge on the lot or if the fridge is empty. Babies, toddlers, and children cannot die of starvation; they will be removed by the social worker before their hunger drops low enough. Even if [[testingcheatsenabled]] is used to drag the Hunger motive down to zero, they will not starve. You will also see a Sim wave it's arm in the air as a signal that it is expiring.
In ''[[The Sims 3]]'', a Sim starves if they get the "Starving" [[moodlet]], and it expires. Since a Sim will only get this moodlet after the "Hungry" and "Very Hungry" moodlets have expired, starvation takes longer than it does in other Sims games. In ''The Sims 3'', the ghost of a Sim who died of starvation will be purple, and the [[Gravestone#The Sims 3|gravestone]] of that Sim will have a picture of a knife, fork, and plate on it. [[Vampire (The Sims 3)|Vampires]] in ''[[The Sims 3: Late Night]]'' cannot die of starvation, but can die from thirst. Due to technical limitations, a Sim can only die of starvation when on a lot, as the gravestone can only be spawned on a lot. As a result, Sims do not die in areas that are outside of lots, such as roads. Pregnant Sims cannot die from starvation. With testingcheatsenabled on, even if the player drags the hunger need of a baby, toddler, child, or pet down to zero, the Sim will not die, but will be taken away by the social worker instead.
