Chemistry measures multiple aspects of a Sims' [[personality]] to determine how easily Sims can be attracted to one another. The [[aspiration]]s of the Sims are compared, and certain pairings of aspirations result in greater or lesser chemistry. [[Zodiac sign]]s are also a factor of attraction, with some signs sharing a strong attraction (or repulsion) to other signs. Similarity in Sim personality points can improve attraction, whereas strongly differing personalities can reduce attraction. Sims also possess turn-ons and a turn-off, which are specific traits that the Sim finds especially attractive or repulsive.

Bonehilda emerging from her coffin.

Bonehilda is an NPC that was introduced in The Sims: Makin' Magic, and later returned in The Sims 3: Supernatural and The Sims 4: Paranormal Stuff. She can be summoned from either a special upright coffin[TS:MM][TS3:SN] or by performing a seance[TS4:PS].

She mainly functions as a maid, with the ability to clean a Sim's house free of charge. However, depending on the game, she can also repair broken appliances, do laundry, tend to a garden, socialize, prepare meals, and care for children. As a walking skeleton, any human maids who see her while they are working may freak out and quit their job, and house guests will generally be tense in her presence. In haunted houses[TS4:PS], she is able to protect the residents by fighting off a vengeful spirit known as Temperance.

Bonehilda will occasionally grab a drink from a nearby bar, sink or refrigerator when she has nothing else to do, which will humorously flow right through her and leave a puddle on the floor. She also seems to be a fan of the Grim Reaper, and might stop to ask him for an autograph if he shows up[TS:MM].

Removing her skeletal appearance using cheats or mods results in a Sim that resembles the Grim Reaper[TS3:SN], or a light-skinned woman with long red hair and green eyes[TS4:PS].
