This is an event usually hosted by @cmbaker16 but since she’s unavailable at this time, I have been given permission to host in her place.
This event is similar to the Sims 3 homemade gift exchanges in that each participant is assigned a Secret Buddy to make in-game gifts for.
These gifts are CC Free and follow the wishes found in the Buddy Letter.
Specific questions regarding Buddy gifts need to be sent to me via pm. General questions can be posted in this thread.
RULES: 1. Please don’t sign up if you can’t follow through 2. Make note of the dates listed in the 2nd post 3. Join by using the Buddy Letter found in the 3rd post 4. You can make as many gifts as you want 5. Each Buddy should gift & be gifted. If unable to gift the person you’re assigned, please let me know ASAP (via pm) so arrangements can be made 6. If your gift presentation has lots of pictures, feel free to make a gifting thread for your Buddy. Post a message in the main thread each time a gift is added! 7. Be polite and supportive of each other, leaving all drama llamas outside visiting the cows and chickens 8. Have FUN!!
Be-cauuuuuuuuse the web version of the gallery is being a ROYAL PAIN... for, trust me - i tried ALL day yesterday, *last night*, and this morning (after i got up at 4am to try again)... Ms Addy suggested I let you know that it would be better - for you and everyone else - if you went in game to the gallery there ((using my origin i d - MsPrissySim)), and downloaded your gifts. ((i will still provide the links so you can READ the descriptions; there's just NO gallery pics. especially, "outside pics" of your smaller gifts.))
So. In the meantime, let's get started with MY presentation of your MAIN gift...
***********************
Everything started out soooooo nice. I "reworked" what I had found to fit what you eventually settled on. My thinking was this... why don't I put together several "containers" to make one, BIG one? This was the house/floor plan I finally found...
I pushed, pulled and tweaked everything when I was building it. I know I could have tweaked it a bit more. (but then, it would have taken me FOR-EVER to get it done :D ) This was your base and the OUTSIDE...
"The Tragic Container" (the final name it became) has three bedrooms, two adjoining bathrooms, and one bathroom that can be used FOR the 3rd bedroom and also for any "guest".
After the ORIGINAL owners died in a plane crash (their pets as well), another family had bought it & moved in. But, THEY TOO, met a tragic ending. They were victims of a head on car crash. Since those times, the house had become so run down and infested. NO Realty would go *near* the place. Some even said that the place was "HAUNTED"!!! (shocked look) Is there ANY sim willing to give this place a chance?
But! B E W A R E... Your whole gift took a horrendous turn. I mean, LOOK...
Gerald & Kendall Henson fell in love with the house they bought thru #ConcreteSimRealty. They raised 3 adorable kids - their oldest, a teen, and twin toddlers - a boy & girl. They also adopted 2 pets. Things were fine until... the plane they were ALL on (coming back from a holiday vacation), crashed. Killing everyone on board. Their house remained vacant for years.
***************************
Time passed very slowly. It almost seemed that the neighborhood around the house was developing faster. ((but, i mean... can you really blame anyone for not wanting to buy this property? That was the case... until :o
Philip & Celia Swenson were having one *heck* of a scream fest, one day. After picking up their son - Stewart - (who the couple had adopted a few years earlier) - from his middle school, Philip - not paying attention to the road - drove head on into another car; killing himself and everyone involved. ((they were heading BACK to the same house *they* bought from #ConcreteSimRealty. "The Tragic Container"))
These 2 kids were hanging out with each other & having fun. Doing their typical "bar-hopping", the night was going fabulous, until... Although Vivienne swerved to *avoid* the on-coming car - and the crash was NOT her fault - the other vehicle (carrying the Swenson family) PLOWED right into Viv & Adam; instantly killing them.
***************************
And there you have it. What started out soooo sweet & innocent, took such DARK, twisted turns.
Hope you enjoy them!!! ;) :D B)
(( I did snap loads more pics. Trying to set up a slideshow has been a pain, tho. ))
Is the house cursed? The people? The realty company? This really is a tragic background ... the story is perfect for telling while sitting around a campfire, lol and looks like you had fun pulling everything together even with the various bumps in the road to delivery.

LOL !! Thanks. I told you everything took a tragic twist. :D ;)
But, seriously. When I reread the gifting time, it ALL fell into place. (literally) :p

OMGoodness @MsPrissy88 - such a huge amount of effort went into this place. The poor folks who lived there!! Thank you so much for this amazing gift!
@MsPrissy88: What a wonderful house! I saw the outside and thought, "How pretty!" Then I saw the inside and your comments and I had to laugh. That is so awesome! I love how the house is "cursed" by all those tragic deaths!
It's really cool that you have the families available for download. Are they ghosts, or the original - living - families? (I can't check right now because my internet is being wonky, and won't let me log on with Origin. And when I click the link, all the images are empty for me, because my internet is so bad atm. It's my computer, I think, not Origin.)
What's also cool is that the spiderwebs in the game don't have collision, so Sims will go right through them as if they aren't there, making the house completely livable with that decor. :)
This is soooo imaginative! What a great spooktacular gift!

On the gallery - the families are the "original", beings. When I was "testing" the house, that's when I was killing off every one. But! Be-cause the kids (the toddlers and child) can't be on a lot by themselves, they kept getting whisked away before I could figure out HOW to kill them. #gaaaaaaah #grrrr And, that's why I had made the comments - on EACH of their descriptions - that SOME of their names are on the tombstones. ((and yes. BECAUSE the web version of the gallery is stoooooopid, NO images will be seen. and was why i explained to Spoonie - and the rest of y'all - to just grab everything THRU the actual gallery when you're in game))
I wasn't even thinking about whether or not sims *could* go in or out, through the webs. :D :D
Talk about Spooktacular, you have outdone yourself Prissy!
THANK YOU, Bree!!!
