Unfortunately, it did not work. I decided to work on getting my Sims' skills up to make Ambrosia to see if it works.
I think it actually worked for me like it was supposed to... once?

I am starting to think that my sim did actually die but everything was seamless and Grim did not show up

@vpeterson0527, while I suppose it is possible that your Sim really died, I still think the ghost state is just stuck. 🤨 I' have since heard of this happening before but the solution may no longer be working.
I talked to a few other helpers and one of them suggest eating ambrosia (which is what you have decided to try).. But that made me think that if you have Realm of Magic, there is a spell in the Untamed Magic category called Dedeathify that can restore a ghost to its physical form, This is a spell for a Master Spellcaster. It is worth a try if you have the Realm of Magic Game Pack.😉
You can also try to reset your Sim (although this usually is used when your Sim is physically stuck somewhere, it can't hurt to try). Open the cheat box by pressing "Ctrl" + "Shift" + "C" at the same time. Then in the box type "resetsim FirstName LastName" (without the quotes and press "Enter". So if your Sim is Bella Goth you would type "resetsim Bella Goth" and press "Enter". 😉
You can also try deleting some cache files that your game doesn't need. For more about that , here is a link: https://sims4.crinrict.com/eng/2014/09/delete-cache-files/
I have some more ideas (this is in reference to where above I stated that some other people have had this happen but the solution may no longer be working), but those solutions are a little bit more complicated . So as not to overwhelm you, I will let you try these first! 🙂
Thank you for bearing with us while we try to solve your problem! 😇 Please keep us updated as to what happens as you try to fix your Sim!

@Psychotps, I've used the Ghost Goo recently with no problems but it seems that some people in the past had problems with it if they traveled while a ghost or went to work while a ghost. 🤨 I was not able to replicate @vpeterson0527 , experience, but I didn't have my Sim travel while in the ghost state. :ealight_bulk: So that might be why my Ghost Goo was fine but yours and @vpeterson0527 's weren't! 🤔
@vpeterson0527, I'm going to try to replicate this , but this time I will have my Sim travel! I hope my Ghost Goo fails! 🤞

@vpeterson0527, sadly I was not able to replicate your problem in my game. ☹️ I used the Ghost Goo 4 times (7 if you count the times the goo just gave my Sim a bad moodlet without turning him into a ghost) but in each case he became normal after the 4 hours were up. 2 of the times I had him travel, hoping to trigger an older bug with the Ghost Goo. I took him to the museum in San MyShuno and the other time I let him go to work and didn't join him there (he's a scientist so he has that option).
I'm sorry I wasn't able to duplicate your experience. 😞
Did any of the extra suggestions help you?🤔 Please update us! 😇

It's okay! I am just working on getting my sims' skills up to make ambrosia which is taking awhile. Once i get to the point to make it I will update on the results

So an update is that my sims skills are up but i am struggling to get all the ingredients. I have the potion of youth but i cannot seem to catch the angelfish and my grafted plants aren't producing orchids and what not

@vpeterson0527, if you have Realm of Magic, you can easily get Angelfish at the magic shops as their inventory rotates daily. But if you don't have ROM, it will be much more difficult to get. I did angelfish somewhat easily by fishing in Sulani with Island Paradise. But again, if you don't have that pack, it can be tricky to get one! I've done it before those packs were out,. but not very often.
As for the orchid, they used to be much easier to breed with grafting, but the rates are much reduced with the patch that came out when Seasons came out. Your best bet it to get to a high level of gardening and then purchase the seed packs... seasonal ones are achieved at level4, uncommon are at level 7 and rare are level 10. I don't remember if orchids are uncommon or rare, and I think you can also get them with the seasonal seed packets (winter and spring are the seasons for orchids).
But, since your game messed up, I would use cheats to get the orchid seeds . You might cheat some money in your game as well, since the rarer the see packets, the higher the cost.
Open the Cheat Box by pressing "Ctrl" + "Shift" + "C" at the same time and press "Enter"
In the cheat box type the following without quotes "bb.ignoregameplayunlocksentitlement" and press "Enter" (don't forget the "." between "bb" and "ignore.....". It is very easy to forget!
Now you can purchase any of the seed packs in Build/BuyMode! But you will have to probably buy many of them because there is no guarantee you will get orchids. Use the "kaching" money cheat for 1000 simoleons or "motherlode" for 50, 000 simoleons if you need to ., Seasonal packets are cheaper so you might want to try those first, either winter or spring ones.
However, @SheriGR has some rooms you can download... some have plants like the orchid plant, and she even has a room with ambrosia already to go! ❤️ Just place the room on your lot and drag the ambrosia to your Sim's table!
I found the ambrosia on the left side of the 3rd row down. :eahigh_file:
Hopefully that will help your situation!🤞 Please update us on how it goes! 😇
