Let's all share our darkest gameplay stories from across the series. :p I once had a vampire Sim go on a date with a vampire Sim he just met. He proposed to her, then immediately after, she burst into flames and died. He begged the Grim Reaper to save her, and he did. So then they celebrated with a bush-woohoo. She got pregnant from that. Then, he broke up with her and left. >:)

The Sims 2 had my most horrific death which was fun I shared with a Maxoid artist before he had passed away. It was with the Curious Brothers. Vidcund Curious and Lazlo Curious were having a double wedding with Kristen Singles and Lola Singles. Vidcund was baking a wedding cake. The wedding was about to end, the cake sets on fire, the house sets on fire. The couples are about to leave their house to go on their honeymoon and the limo sets on fire. Pascal Curious had an alien daughter, Nebula Curious and she ends up being the only survivor and then the game ends. I was just shocked what had happened on my screen, but really showed how random deaths could be and how they happen in the Sims 2 which really cemented my love for the franchise.

Maybe this is not overly dark but I did have this bad habit of being dissatisfied with the maids in TS2 so if I did not like the look of one then I would end up butting them in a doorless room and end up starving them... It took a few attempts but I would eventually have a few extra ghosts in the community grave yard of maids who had been discriminated against for their looks :no_mouth:

In TS3, I made my first Sim burn multiple buildings down. It was rad.

I usually try to make my Sims happy, unless for research/experiment reasons...But I remember once when The Sims 3 was still quite new, I decided I wanted to try to have Grim Reaper and my Sim to have a romantic relationship. Let's just say that experiment required a lot of NPCs visiting my house and having 'accidents' that ended with them dying.

Buffy the vampire slayer cleansed Bridgeport of all evil vampires.Other vampires were given the opportunity to be turned human again.As a witch, she was able to slay vampires with a combination of thirst and sunlight charms.

Mine was back in Sims 3. I had a family of 4 that I was playing. The wife was my own creation, who was married to Vladimir Schlick (Bridgeport), and they had two children, a teen daughter, and a son who was still a child. I had become very attached to this family when EA had released a patch that was to fix a serious issue that was affecting all players negatively. But for the patch to take place we had to save our families to the bin, and then start a new game save, and then place our families in the new game save.

But when I tried to save my family, it would just not save. After some trial and error, I finally figured out it was the wife/mother who was causing the issue. I didn't have the heart not to save her husband without her, so I aged up the teen to a young adult and saved her and her brother. I ended up moving the sibling pair to Moonlight Falls. It was not an easy transition after the move either, because the sims of that town were always causing problems for the orphans. But eventually, things did smooth out for them, and their families did eventually progress and grow.

@Scobre how do you managed to have a female baby be born from Pascal? The game always makes mine a boy, every single time i played since 2004.

OH MY I had something happen to my Curious Brothers as well - left a young teenager raising his siblings and cousins - thank goodness for the nanny or was it the maid. The eldest ended up marrying her. I think that save was my favorite game.

I have let Sims suffer and/or die on purpose several times. That's what compulsive behavior drives me to after a while.

The ones I've had most fun with (and frustration from) was when I caged up Caleb Vatore and put sinks all around him that he couldn't get to -to drink water excessively. Another was when I caged up Don Lothario on a beach. He completely neglected his needs in favor of doing fire dance around a bonfire. I put it out, caged him, and put all the things he needed in front of him, but out of reach.

I've also broken up many couples and had my played Sim live a life of infidelity, etc...
