Vampire home invasion makes me feel powerless

Hm. You can try either not saving or reverting to an older save. There's always a way to remove it too (with cheats or you can also cure them (not sure how atm, but it's possible)

EDIT: If they turn, it's def. a bug and you should report in the bug forum here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/bd-p/The-Sims-4-Bugs

Also, you can use garlic to stop it from the attacks from happening.

Hi @KristenNMartin

i've moved this to the game info forum as this isnt' really a tech issue.

Have your Sims actually become vampires ? That should not happen. The breaking in happens but they should not turn into vampires without you saying so. The vampires might drink from your Sims but not to the point where they turn.

Thank you Crin,
It's been almost 2 game days since the attack and my character has been "uncomfortable" during that time, which is what happened to an earlier Sim that had been attacked at his home and he did become a Vampire, so I'm under the impression she will become a vampire. If there's a way to halt the complete conversion, I'd be very glad to know. I see there's a way to load saved games, but haven't had a chance to open her saved game yet to see if it will pick up at a point prior to her attack.
While I'd be relieved at a solution to this problem, my deeper concern is that this script for vampire attacks was written into the game at all.

    THANK YOU for your prompt advice and help in this matter. I admittedly used some harsh language in my initial forum post because I knew other people that felt like me would be searching for that terminology. But I regret its use in the headline.
    Just circling back to commend the SIMS community for always being there with an answer, a fix, a mod, and support.

  Players including me want and need this for storytellings, so why the game should just get rid of it just because someone like you don'r feel comfortable?? so strange, you can just solve it either way you want. EA, please stop taking content from the game just following absurd complaint

    Very simple solution - click on your sim's front door and select from the menu there. It lets you decide who comes into the house.
