It looks like there is a corrupted file in your saved game and looks like it might be related with Eric. Like I said before, I never had the option of bringing a sim back to life as a ghost appear to me, so I'm not sure how that works, but we can try to solve this together. How exactly does that work? Eric's remains are in someone's personal inventory and you just have to take them to the lab and he'll come back as a ghost or did that appear as an opportunity?
Do you have any saved games from before Eric died?
Normally when you figure out that a specific sim is causing issues, you just kick them out of the household and then when you bring him back everything is ok. But Eric can't move to another lot alone because he's dead. There is an option to move the person that has Eric in their inventory to another lot, then move them back to the household where your family is. After doing so, try to get him to the lab again and bring him back as a ghost. Just for precaution, before doing this, make a backup of your current game. You can do so by clicking ''save as'' and giving your save the same name as your current save and today's date or anything you want just to differentiate from the other save. ex: hiro&sam060613 or hiro&sambackup.
@Gardin, you get a call sometimes after the sim has died, giving you the opportunity to do it. If I'm not mistaken, once you've done it for the first time, you can do it as many times as you want afterwards. Basically, the opportunity becomes a option. Long time no see too. 😕mileyvery-happy:
@OP, what happens if you copy the family to the library and try in a different save?

@Andromache if gamergoddess can solve it just by moving one sim with Eric's remains to another lot and then moving them back in, there's no use in moving the household to the bin and losing all of their friends and wishes and jobs right? Not criticizing! I thought about that too but if this works this way then gamergoddess could avoid all those losses.
Been kinda busy these last weeks, trying to make some time to help again 🙂
