@Cinderellimouse You can be a single form vampire or a dual form vampire.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@Cinderellimouse No, either you have only a regular form, or you have a regular and a dark form. But all CAS options are available on both.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@catloverplayer Residential world
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@_SofiaMia @YouTube Yup, 5 playable lots including the creepy mansion! 🙂
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@Cinderellimouse @SimGuruNinja Yup!
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@spring_sims @SimGuruNinja Yes, there are new lot traits!
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@Connor1452 @PaulinaKlepacka @catloverplayer @TheSimScraper @SimGuruNinja Vampires have a unique tombstone, just like aliens do.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@XAYR0 @tazreentasnim @catloverplayer 1 neighborhood with 5 lots
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@BroBastii No, but you could ask a Vampire to turn them!
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@Frimlin @SimGuruNinja Aliens cannot become vampires and there are no hybrids.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@tweeterbeees @SimGuruHouts @SimGuruNinja Depends on your powers and weaknesses!
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@RoryplaysSims Everyone knows that a vampire doesn’t have a reflection!
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@catloverplayer @SimGuruNinja Nope!
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@spring_sims @SimGuruNinja No emotional aura for vamps
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@RacodyZ The new world has some areas that look like cemeteries, but there is no cemetery lot with special behavior.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@AmberLynnGrow94 Ghosts cannot have babies. If a vamp and alien try to have a baby, their offspring will be either an alien or a vamp.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@PetarC123 @SimGuruNinja Yes!
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@Frimlin @SimGuruNinja No, because Alien form and Human form use different CAS parts.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@TheBrunoCp @SimGuruNinja You can customize your vamp with powers and weaknesses.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@KentaProduction We’ll be sharing more info on Vampire powers in the future! Stay tuned!
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@TheBrunoCp @SimGuruNinja Sims can be born as Vamps, but their powers do not manifest until teen.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@TheBrunoCp @SimGuruNinja And a Vampire can only turn a Sim that is teen or older.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@TheBrunoCp @SimGuruNinja Yes!
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
Any new harvestables/recipes – Is this a harvestable? @SimGuruNinja @SimGuruMegs pic.twitter.com/UXcRrCVi2M
— SimScraper (@TheSimScraper) January 10, 2017
@luketheplumbob @TheSimScraper @SimGuruNinja The plasma tree is in the background.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@catloverplayer @SimGuruNinja We don’t have a new radio station.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@AhmedKallala Yes, he’s a resident of Forgotten Hollow.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@catloverplayer @AhmedKallala Yes, the female vampire on the cover art lives there too!
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@luketheplumbob @SimGuruNinja We don’t have hunting mode like Sims 3.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@luketheplumbob @SimGuruNinja Yes but if you don’t ask nicely, they won’t like your Sim very much.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@CuriousCheeze Regular neighborhood. All pack assets can be used anywhere. But FH is so creepy and cool, that’s where my Vampire lives!
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@SimGuruMegs @PaulinaKlepacka @catloverplayer @TheSimScraper You can engrave them with epitaphs.
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@RealThomasTV1 No new lot sizes.
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@TheSimScraper @SimGuruMegs No on/off switch, but Vampirism only spreads when you (player) do it. So no swarms of Vamps invading your worlds
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@AhmedKallala Special power you can choose.
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@TFSxxx @SimGuruDrake @SimGuruMegs @SimGuruRusskii @SimGuruHouts Have to keep it tight for performance, but it’s dripping with character.
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@Sulucorp Coffin lids close and yes, you can cry it out in there.
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@catloverplayer That was Vampire sparring. That’s the friendly version. 😉
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@KentaProduction Yes! There’s at least one other really cool romance option for Vampires.
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@Frimlin @SimGuruMegs Of course! Have to be able to support those Vegetarian Vampires, right?
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@yes_mi_mi_mi You can use any existing skin tones in the game and they’ll work with all vamp parts beautifully.
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@yes_mi_mi_mi Really important to us that you can create a wide variety of Vampire types. Old school, new school, & everything in between.
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@Sulucorp @Cinderellimouse @SimGuruHouts Some of the vampire-esque recipes can be placed on your Restaurant menu. 😉
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@AhmedKallala I don’t know. The super speed kind of blows me away. It’s so satisfying to use!
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@Vihisha Yes, several different styles of fangs so you can really customize to the specific look you’re going for.
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@SouthSnowBC That is one of the several new statues we’re offering, yes.
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@Mistergerbit No, but they don’t spread unless you do it as the player. So no invading hordes of Vampires will attack your world.
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@yes_mi_mi_mi It’s not genetics or makeup either. It’s an all new CAS part!
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@TheSimScraper @SimGuruMegs You should put a red box around the tree in the background. 😉
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@catloverplayer @SimGuruMegs LOTS of new songs on the pipe organ in LOTS of styles. Well, provided you have high enough Pipe Organ skill.
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@HazzaPlumbob There is lots of food…er, normal sims…walking around FH.
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@TheSimDoughnut There’s some neat detail on the radiators when you zoom up close. Great job by the art team.
— Aaron Houts (@SimGuruHouts) January 10, 2017
Watch out, sometimes there’s a 🕷️crawling on the new decorative spider webs! #TheSims4 Vampires pic.twitter.com/BvZ9wZ4VR9
— Aaron Houts (@SimGuruHouts) January 10, 2017
@Cinderellimouse Hint: the rips aren’t part of any specific wallpaper. Use ’em wherever!
— Aaron Houts (@SimGuruHouts) January 10, 2017
@Frimlin @Cinderellimouse I *think* it’s 3×2, but don’t have it in front of me at the moment.
— Aaron Houts (@SimGuruHouts) January 10, 2017
@hisokamemes If you mean the spiders, they’re only on the spider webs (and they’re not there all the time).
— Aaron Houts (@SimGuruHouts) January 10, 2017
@hisokamemes They’re decorative objects that you can place in Build Mode.
— Aaron Houts (@SimGuruHouts) January 10, 2017
@Cinderellimouse @SimGuruNinja @TheSimScraper Haha, it’s not a fish. You might change your mind when you see it in action!
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@daniel_willyan @SimGuruNinja @SimGuruHouts Yes, and some of the UI updates that went in for Aliens in the last patch were added for Vamps.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@daniel_willyan @SimGuruNinja @SimGuruHouts There will be more trailers before launch.
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@luthsthings @SimGuruNinja Yes!
— Megan G (@SimGuruMegs) January 10, 2017
@Vihisha @Frimlin @SimGuruMegs @SimGuruHouts Wallpapers, floors… the variants are outta control this time.
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@TFSxxx @AhmedKallala @SimGuruMegs There IS a dark meditation tho. Just not on the coffin.
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@rjhenn14 @SimGuruMegs @SimGuruHouts Jen got it. The spiderwebs, cracks, rips, ivy plants. All available to be put on any wall surface.
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@SebbyFuqua No. Kids won’t exhibit their vampirism until they become Teens. They are vamps; just super novice at it.
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@catloverplayer @SimGuruDrake I’m guessing we’ll do an even split between CAS, Build, and Live mode. It’s going to be super fun.
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@LuckyLunayre And aliens don’t have good plasma. Vamps can’t feed from them. Yuck!
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@TheSimScraper @SebbyFuqua lol. Maaaaaayyyyyyybbbbbeeeeee. (I love the new bassinet!)
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@JulinhoXD2001 We have some new lot traits and aspirations.
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@LuckyLunayre Ghosts are plasma free.
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@daniel_willyan @Frimlin @SimGuruMegs @SimGuruHouts No dif breeds, but lots of customizable options: clothes, face parts, build objects, etc
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 10, 2017
@iamnothereokay The sun is not safe for a vampire anywhere! (The shade is okay though) The severity is based off your strengths/weaknesses.
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 11, 2017
@iamnothereokay Yeah! Lots of songs in various styles. A couple we’ll play at the livestream that will make everyone smile.
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 11, 2017
@Howdy_Simmer Right? I’ll follow up tomorrow with our audio director for info. (We have a simlish version too! 😎)
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 11, 2017
@Cinderellimouse The wallpapers in this pack are outta control. Some excellent details and sheens. Wait ’till you see them live.
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 11, 2017
@julyveegaming @SimGuruRusskii There is indeed a Vampire admission rule.
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 11, 2017
@Gemelos_Vargas @SimGuruMegs There’s a way to hunt & cure, but I won’t tell you how just yet. Vampire Hunting will make for cool stories!
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 11, 2017
Vampire Kids: they can’t use powers until teenager, but they can still look the part. Allowed to use vampire eyes, skin tones, and ears.
— Dave Miotke (@SimGuruNinja) January 12, 2017
Big enough for multiple coffins and plenty of plasma fruit.
2 30×30’s, 2 30×20’s, and a 40×30. @SimGuruNinja @MrsXerxes— George Pigula (@SimGuruGeorge) January 11, 2017

Supernaturals have always been a great part of The Sims, adding even more unique storytelling opportunities along with darker, crazy fun. And that’s why we’re super excited to announce The Sims™ 4 Vampires* Game Pack, coming January 24th, 2016.
For The Sims 4, we really wanted to build out Vampires more than we’ve ever done before, and we think you’ll really enjoy them. They have their own special Vampire motives and needs, focused around gaining enough Plasma, Powers and sleep. Plasma is what Vampires drink, and it comes in a few different varieties. Your Sim can purchase Plasma Packs if they’re wanting a quick fix, or grow Plasma Fruit as a more long-term option. If you want to be a more traditional Vampire, you can also creep up on unsuspecting Sims while they sleep drain Plasma from them. Or just ask nicely, but where’s the fun in that?
Now, hold on, go back. Powers? Yup, Vampires have Powers! You’ll be able to use these to turn other Sims in to Vampires, and move around in different forms, and more. We’re going to talk about that in in the coming weeks, we promise. But for now we’ll just say that they add to your experience as a Vampire, gaining both powers and weaknesses which will affect your story and how you play your Vampire.
Vampires also can have two forms: regular and dark, and if you have both then your Sim will spin in to the Dark Form to perform Vampire actions. They’ve got their own creepy walk style too, that we think you’ll really love. Oh, and you probably shouldn’t leave them out in daylight either. After a little while they get a bit… flammable.
This Game Pack also adds a bunch of totally new Create a Sim options! We’ve got glowing eyes and creepy eye sockets, new washed out skin tones suitable for Sims that literally never see daylight, and some really dramatic brow options to give your Vampire that sinister-ancient-being look. There’s more, don’t worry, but we know how much you love finding fun new stuff. Oh, and about those two forms. You’ll be able to fully customize both options, but if you’ve perfected an outfit and want it for both forms, we’ve got you covered with a handy little button to copy between them!
Wanting a whole family of Vampires? Sims can be born as a Vampire, but their powers won’t start until they age up in to Teenagers. You also won’t know until then if they got the Vampire genetics or not, as the Plumbob style won’t change until then too. At that point, they’ll also stop naturally aging up. Don’t worry, you can get the trusty Birthday Cake out and age them up that way if you want to, or they can just live forever and continue their legacy in Forgotten Hollow.
Did we mention Forgotten Hollow yet?
Forgotten Hollow is the new World coming in the The Sims 4 Vampires Game Pack. It’s completely different to previous The Sims 4 worlds, and makes a great place for a Vampire to live as night-time lasts long here. There’s one block, with five lots, all centered around a plaza area dedicated to Vlad, the founding Vampire of Forgotten Hollow. You’ll notice that this World looks and feels totally different to the others in The Sims 4, with creeping fog and a lot of withered, old foliage. We wanted this to feel like a centuries-old neighborhood with history and secrets, so there’s also some great Build & Buy Mode objects to help you create your perfect Vampire home. There’s also a lot trait that’ll encourage Vampires to stop by your Sim’s home more often. Don’t worry, Vampires aren’t unique to Forgotten Hollow and they will show up from time to time in other Worlds, just not as often.Of course, no Vampire home would be complete without the classic Vampire objects. Your Vampire Sim can spend their days avoiding daylight and playing the pipe organ, which has its own skill to level up. Oh, and one more little thing. There’s also new coffin beds, that your Vampire Sim can totally WooHoo in.
By answering a simple question related to restaurants, SimGuruNinja accidentally revealed that The Sims 4 Vampires Game Pack will come with a new aspiration! Although we don’t have any info what the aspiration is about yet, we will probably find out in tomorrow’s announcement.
Also, it seems that Vampires will have a totally different set of needs. Check it out!
