Bella Goth is still missing according to theory

I kind of miss The Sims 2 storyline of Bella Goth - it had more drama and excitement to the families. The Sims 3 kind of followed it on by focusing on the childhood of Bella Goth. It is a shame that they don't have a storyline for the Goths in The Sims 4......

she's not missing, she's been in my heart all these years

Yeah, we never really got a proper sequel to The Sims 2's plot. Did Bella ever make it back home? I'd like to think so.

But I think that was kind of the goal! They never wrapped it up because it was up to the Simmers to do so. :)

When I was playing Sims 3, Midnight Hollow, Bella was there. I read her bio and it said she had recently escaped from a mad scientist who had kept her locked up in his basement. I checked out the local mad scientist's house and he had a few jail cells in his basement. I believe her bio said something about why she didn't go home but I'm not too sure, it's been a couple of years.

She didnt. There was a Bella Goth in Strangetown, but she was a clone / had no memories of the Goths (also possibly because she was in a different neighborhood and Sims 2 couldn't support relationships from another neighborhood that at the time.)

I remember 10 year old me being really into the lore of her story, being creeped out and intrigued. Theres a lot of easter eggs too, like she is show missing on milk cartons in ts2, and she can also be seen in the hot air ballon from neighborhood view.

Bella isn't in Midnight Hollow, the sim you mentioned is called Sarah Holden (named after one of the SimGurus who were in charge of the Store worlds at the time).

Wasn’t there a dead elder Bella Goth in Lunar Lakes?

I heard that a sim guru said (don't know who exactly, forgive me), that the dead Bella Goth from Lunar Lakes is in fact the same Bella like the one from Sunset Valley, but they didn't go into detail how she ended there and why she looks so different to the original Bella.

ETA: I looked it up, it was SimGuruSarah who confirmed it, atleast that's what The Sims Wiki says: sims.wikia.com/wiki/Bella_Goth_(Lunar_Lakes)

She was clearly used to sell TS4 though.

I mean they sold quite a few extra copies using her as bait.

Maxis could do a Bella Goth spin-off game like Tomb Raider and make a fortune out of her.

Tomb Raider was a successful franchise that led to films.

Seriously, Bella Goth could be a spin-off and also make it to Hollywood. Megan Fox, etc could play her.

I think Maxis are stunting the huge growth and worldwide appeal of Bella Goth.

If it were down to me, we'd be watching the 6th instalment of a Bella Goth movie franchise in the cinemas this summer.
