On her second night in San Myshuno, my sleeping sim was attacked by a vampire. The front door was locked (which shouldn't bar the vampire) and my sim awoke dazed with the vampire in the apartment hallway. The female vampire then proceeded to play with her cellphone, sing (sounded like "Oh Susanna") and cackle to herself and never came in the apartment (which didn't have any garlic around either). I tried to get my sim to use the Sim Ray on the vampire (which would have been tons of fun), but the only action which she seemed to do was to fulfill the whim to sleep. The vampire ended up going away at around 5 a.m. and my sim napped till morning at which I couldn't get her up for work. I exited the game without saving. This the first sim I've had that was attacked and I'm wondering what the heck happened.Oh, I'm playing without CC or mods.

I'll do that. But I was wondering why the vampire seemed more interested in her cellphone than attacking my sim. Are all vampires this distracted?

Maybe she's absent minded. I've had a few attacks where they never went through with it.

It happened again. Last night Vlad himself crept down the apartment hall, mesmerized my sim and then never came in the apartment to drink. I'm beginning to think the locked front door is keeping the vampires at bay. Either that or I have completely inept vampires in my game.

I thought all vampires can just come in, especially if it is the night time attack! Funny thing that happened last night was that I added the 3 noble and rebellious vampires to Forgotten Hollow and my sim was turned my Caleb when he came over as the only welcome wagon! I am using my autonomous turning mod and it worked flawlessly :) So the night my sim was turning he slept and suddenly the noble female vampire with the yellow dress came by and wanted to sneak in, she mesmerized my sim and they walked outside. As she was approaching him for the bite he suddenly turned and she stopped in her way and giggled XD LMAO! Problem is, my sim stayed mesmerized and dazed, and the stupid sound that comes with it kept going. So I left to the night club and as I returned home the dazed sound started fading away. This was a very weird encounter :D She almost drunk from him before he turned.

Thanks everyone! Now I know as long as I keep the door locked, they can't enter unless I invite them in. I have to say, I'm taking names of the vamps that come to visit, and am going to sim ray them if I ever see them outside at night. (Lilith was gone from the hallway when my sim came home from work). I'm curious if they will burn to death when the daylight comes.

That's so funny!!! None of my sims have been attacked yet... Do they have to be in an apartment to be attacked or something?

I mostly get randomly generated vampires walking into my Sims' houses. I need to get around to locking the doors lol.

No it should happen with any sim who you play after the GP was installed. If you create a new sim it's probably more likely to happen at least once, while some people have it happen to them many times afterwards. I always saw the night attack when I started a new game with a new sim. However it should also happen randomly if your sim reads about vampires or meets one etc. This is something that is not only happening in apartments.

I've had the vampires pack since day 1 and noone's been attacked! And plenty of my sims have studied vampire lore.

Same here :'(

I have the opposite problem! I'd love for the fun gameplay of having a vampire attack, but all they do is knock at the door like "hey." maybe i"ll just spam my world with vampires.
