How to reverse Ghost Goo Potion
How to reverse Ghost Goo effects in Sims 4? My sim drank it and has been a ghost for two days. Help!
Forum Discussion
So once I had all the ingredients and made the ambrosia, I made my ghost sim eat it. The result was a failure. My sim's age reset and she remained a ghost.
@vpeterson0527, that is what I was afraid would happen. 😞
I was also going to suggest a few things that people often do when they have some sort of Sim or household glitch. Usually you can try traveling and then returning (travel in this case would mean that you follow your Sim to some lot like a park or the gym, and then return home). But, some people have noticed that in the past this seemed to trigger their "temporary" ghost state to become permanent, as did going to work! (Saving and quitting the game might do the same!) Another possibility is to move your Sim out to another house and then move them back again. But if some people in the past have had problems with doing these actions, it might be best to hold off doing them! (In fact, you might have done one of these in the first place, and that could be why your Sim is stuck being a ghost! I was not able to trigger the same thing as whatever triggered your ghost to become permanent.
One other thing you can do is to try to drink the Ghost Goo again, in that it might work correctly and over-ride the existing Ghost Goo. 🤔
You can also try to have your ghost get eaten by a Cow Plant! This once stopped my Sim from being a Plant Sim, so maybe it might stop yours from being a ghost! 🤞
Here is the old bug report on the Ghost Goo problem: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues-PC/Ghost-goo-caused-my-sim-to-perma-ghost-ambrosia-didn-t-resurrect/td-p/6966964
But this is considered a solved problem... so, either they fixed the original problem and it has returned, or the cheat that fixed the problem in this bug report is no longer working. (A while back some of the cheats were removed that weren't supposed to be in the game in the first place. I don't know if this was one of them. You can try it if you want, but depending on what ghost trait you have you might have to try all of them... you can find the list of the ghost traits cheats here:
In your case you would type in "remove" instead of "equip" (see bug report posts above that mention this).

However, it was also recommended to me for you to start a new Bug Report ! (My guess is a new one might be in order because the first one is "closed" 🤔 ). You can start one here:https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/bd-p/The-Sims-4-Bugs
Please update us on what happens! 😇
