The Goths are New Money that tried to enter society but fizzled out by the modern day. (Parentheses denote games that support the theory)
The Goths are immigrants (Sims Unleashed) and had their named Anglicised from Von Gothik (Sims 4 Get Famous).
Having secured independent wealth from a then new industry, the Victor and Gretle wanted to gain legitimacy within Sim high society, and sought to do so by marrying their children to two great families.
At first they tried to marry off Frida to a member of the Landgraab family, however refusing to agree to an arranged marriage, she ran away from home and lived with her uncle Samuel, shortly before dying of a tragic accident (Sims 3 Supernatural).
Gunther gained status through the Crumplebottoms, who have long been held in high regard through their charity work (Sims Hot Date), however many members of the family objected to the marriage that it caused a schism within the Crumplebottoms from which they would never recover (Sims 4 Get Famous).
Gunther's marriage to Cornelia was loveless and slept in separate bedrooms (Sims 3) and only ever bore one son, Mortimer. However, Cornelia always had doubts about Gunther's faithfulness, and there were rumours about how the son of a local washed up beauty pageant queen, Elden Hick resembled Gunther and Mortimer (Sims Unleashed).
Seeing how the endless social climbing destroyed her marriage, her family and her sister-in-law, Cornelia encouraged Mortimer to marry someone he loved, rather than for status or wealth. This lead to Mortimer marrying his childhood sweetheart who was otherwise unremarkable and middle class, Bella Bachelor (Sims 3).
