"This green-thumb-friendly manor is conveniently located in central Mourningvale. One of the standout features of this home is the attached greenhouse, which has been converted into a breakfast nook that looks out over the central plaza. This space is perfect home for any Sims interested in gardening...and the afterlife living."
📍This lot has three floors and a slightly abandoned vibe; I still have ghosts from EA living here.
The Cozy Casket House & The Potions and Threads
"The Potions and Threads consignment shop offers not only magical knitted goods for sale but also a complete home for a small family. The adjacent house has a grisly past, which is why it has been vacant for a long time. Both houses have basements and a small courtyard with access to the swamps."
📍This lot has two separate two-story houses. One was once the temporary home of Lord Lucan, who suffered from werewolf fever. The basement contains a cage where he locked himself. Portraits hang throughout the house, revealing clues to the character's fate. You'll also find his wife's "bed" and the cradles of their unborn child. The second house is believed to be the home of a witch who supplies the entire area with herbs and potions. There's a sales stand in the courtyard, and a cauldron in the basement. One option is to set up a business and housing here; it could be knitting and potions, as planned, or perhaps even candy.
Bran Castle
"Bran Manor was once the most famous gathering place for Vranburg's aristocrats. Now, anyone can buy a ticket to the ball and dance until dawn. But beware: the hosts are extremely hospitable, and their thirst for companionship—like their thirst for blood—is insatiable."
📍This estate is completely designed for vampires, featuring a greenhouse, a banquet hall and ballroom, bedrooms, a library, and a huge basement with separate dining and relaxation areas. The property also includes a church and a crypt. It could be used as a bar/castle, a tourist attraction, or as a residential lot.

A save file including more than 400 Sims, including 250 played ones, around 120 lots and plenty of lore!
After all this time, I’m finally able to share the first version of my save! 🎉 This save is the result of years of playing the Sims 4, as some of the Sims you are seeing there were first created 10 years ago (and some of them have followed me since the Sims 1!). It all started with two worlds, Henford-On-Bagley and Tartosa and 50 Sims (as those worlds weren’t being built by my brother Rope), but it was then expanded to way more than that.
Please take the time to read all this post, as it gives some important informations on how to enjoy this save the best way 🤗
🐓 Pour mes amis francophones, vous pouvez télécharger la sauvegarde en français et lire toutes ces instructions en suivant ce lien.
🍵 This save is the result of years of work! If you’ve been enjoying it or any of my content, your support would mean so much! A small donation here could go a long way, especially as I navigate my career change. Thank you!
You are free to enjoy this save as you like, and if you post screenshots of you playing there, you can use the #DownInSaveLand on Bluesky to share your stories 🤩
You can modify anything you want for your personal use, but please, don’t share Lots and Sims from this save and claim it as your own. If you want to use those as a base for your creations, please ask me first.
Worlds and Lots
In order to keep the save reasonable in terms of size, I had to focus on a limited number of worlds. In those worlds, you will find lots built by me (and some builds based on original builds from @simsontherope, heavily or lightly edited) and the worlds outside the lots are customized using the TOOL mod.
Fully edited worlds: Henford-On-Bagley, Tartosa, Del Sol Valley, Sulani, Brindleton Bay, Nordheaven, Copperdale, Forgotten Hollow, Granite Falls, Selvadorada
GTW career lots are also included, as well as some other random lots in worlds not listed here. My goal was to be able to enjoy most of the pack's functionalities. Everything was playtested, and should be functional.
Sims
One of my favorite things is creating characters, therefore I have a lot of Sims living in this save, all created by me. None of the original premades are here, except some necessary townies (that I made over of course).
You might notice that some worlds include a lot of Sims (the record is Del Sol Valley with 19 played households) and some others don’t, and include more community lots. It comes from the way I started working on this save where I filled in only a few worlds at the start, but then expanded it.
All the Sims come with outfits (3 Everyday, 2 Hot Weather, 1 for the other categories, and a customized work outfit), additional traits, skills, careers, preferences, lifestyles and anything you can customize.
Lore
The most exciting part for me is the lore I created in the save file. You will be able to discover all the stories of those Sims in many ways!
Each household comes with a description, custom photos on their house for some of them, and even the books in their bookcases are customized.
Each Sim has many relationships (with family and romance dynamics, romantic satisfaction, sentiments), and milestones to tell their stories.
I can’t wait for you to explore all of that and their dynamics!
Requirements
I'm using all the packs (EP, GP, SP and Kits) and pre-order items that have been released up to May 2025. For event items, in case you haven't unlocked everything, these Lunar mods may help: here & here 😁
I also used the Plumbob lamps unlocked by owning Sims 3 packs in two builds, you can grab them here if needed (Alma Mater Reward and Your Name In Lights Reward). Thanks @diemilchschnitte !
Recommended mods
No mods are mandatory to discover the save, but I do have some recommended mods in order to enjoy the save to its fullest.
My mods:
Overall, the whole save has been built and designed to be used with all my mods. But some are more important than others if you want to get the most out of the save (but again, nothing compulsory).
Multipurpose lots (🪅 Multi-Purpose Lot Traits, 🛒 Functional Registers, 🗝️ Rent a Room): I'm using the three mods on this page to add functionality to my lots, particularly residential rentals. If you don't take the ‘’Rent a Room‘’ mod, some doors in community plots may be locked (mainly hotel rooms). You can just put the doors back in buy mode to unlock them.
🧲 Improved Turn-On & Turn-Offs: I used this mod to set these turn-on and turn-offs, if you don't have it, the Sims might just have some weird preferences on other Sims' outfit colours.
👔 No Outfit Change When Promoted: I've spent some time defining the work outfits for all the Sims, it would be a shame to have an ugly outfit by default if you don't use this mod! The other mods on this page are also useful for limiting inconvenience and regulating visitors on lots.
🚷 No Townie Generation and Relaxed Filters: The save includes all the necessary NPCs and Townies if you use this one, it will prevent the generation of new Sims completely (there are already more than enough Sims in this save!)
🧑🤝🧑 Interact in Tight Spaces: As my lots are cluttered and are in general small, it makes Sims interacting in them way better.
Other creators:
More Selectable Icons - Zerbu: I'm using it for club icons, but as the mod can make the game lag, and I'm only using it for clubs, you can download here a limited version, which only keeps a small selection for clubs (and if you have a mod to add small business icons, it's compatible).
Milestones Expanded - Lumpinou: Useful if you want a more complete view of my Sims' milestones, you might just lose some information if you don't use it.
TOOL - TwistedMexi: It's only useful because it includes a fix that ensures items placed in the world are not deleted when you load a residential rental.
MCCC - Deaderpool or any other mod that prevents Sims from culling, because there are a lot of them in my save, and the game might remove them.
Visual mods:
Eye replacement : If you don’t have ones, those ones are great
Sunblind : Make the outdoor lightning way better
Out of the dark : Fixes the blue light in dark spaces
Mods for the save:
Those are some mods that I created specifically for this save file.
Open World: another very optional mod, especially if you don't have a very powerful PC, but as I've added extra stalls, bars and other stuff to certain parts of the worlds, it makes the worlds more lively. Once again, there's no risk if you don't remove it on another save, you'll just get NPCs appearing without much to do.
World Sorter: this mod just lets you sort the worlds in the selection screen so that the worlds I've modified appear first.
