    Sims that confront their fear of the dark will not continue to be affected by the Afraid of the Dark Scared Moodlet buff.

    Fixed in Patch 1.97.42/1.73

    If you're still experiencing this issue, please create a new thread.

I have this problem with a sim and I was trying to find a work around. First I gave her back the fear with a cheat. And then I had her hide under the covers until all the fear moodlets resolved. Then I had her drink a remove fear potion. And at first she was ok. She was inside and she did not get any fear moodlets. Then at noon (in MWM) I had her go outside and the fear moodlets returned even though she did not have the fear and it was not technically dark.

Ok. A second test I kept her inside until the fear went away and then took my sim directly to Willow Creek without going outside in MWM. It was 4 pm and I had her hang out in Willow Creek until 9pm when it was well dark. She did not get a fear of the dark in Willow Creek. I had her go to Forgotten Hollow. No fear. I had her go home to MWM. No fear moodlets came up. I had her hang out outside all night. No fear. Then she stayed outside till almost noon and nothing yet. Before it was constant so I am hopeful that this is a successful work around.

    @JuneyJuneBug This fix works for me as well. Everytime I have gotten the fear of the dark (about 3 or 4 times), I used this method and every time the moodlet would disappear.

      @DracuAlice2017 Yeah. So far the buff has not come back so it looks like going out to another world for a while clears it.
