The Simsfranchise is most likelya guilty pleasurefor most players. Players can find fun inbuilding massive homesor raising a large family from birth to death. Fans of the series know there are many types of Sims that are playable, such as witches or robots. Players are able to make a family of aliens or a family mixed with the different occult in the game.

The occult in the series can either give Sims magical powers or change the times when the Sim can be awake. While it is cool to havesupernatural creatures in the game, some of the occult are definitely better than others.
16Imaginary Friend
The Imaginary Friend only appears inThe Sims 3and is given to a newborn baby by a distant family member. The Imaginary Friend grows up with the child, becoming a toddler and then a child. By using a special potion, the doll can be turned into a real person.
After turning human, the former Imaginary Friend will have wacky clothes, colored hair, and uniquely colored hair. If the player so wished, Imaginary Friends can be married and have children. Nothing like growing up and marrying someone who was with you since birth.
15Genie
The Genie has appearedin every game up toThe Sims 3,but it only became a life state inThe Sims 3.The Genie can be released from its lamp, something that could not be done before. Doing so will make the formerly trapped Genie playable.
The Genie is then free to marry and have children with whoever the player wants. The children have the chance to be born with blue skin and magic powers, making them pretty unique. After seeing it inThe Sims 3,it would have been cool to free the Genie is earlier games.
14Bigfoot
Bigfoot is usually thought of as being elusive, but he can be found in theBon Voyageexpansion pack forThe Sims 2. By finding a map while digging for treasure, the player is able to befriend Bigfoot and invite him to live with them. From there, he will live until old age.

The sad thing is, Bigfoot is not able to marry or have children. Bigfoot is still good with children and can be used as a babysitter when the parents are at work.
13Plumbot
Plumbots can be built if the player travels into the future inThe Sims 3: Into the Future.The Plumbot is a more advanced version of the Servo and SimBot, being able to have traits. Plumbots are also able to have their appearance changed, with different head and torso options being available.
Plumbots are immortal for the most part, only being killed by meteors. Interestingly, Plumbots can be sold by the player for a little extra money.
12Fairy

Offspring of the fairies have the chance to be born with wings and magical abilities, passing down their supernatural genetics. Players are also able to change the fairy’s wing design, making each one unique.
11Zombie
Zombies have appeared inThe Sims 2andThe Sims 3, turning Sims into undead creatures. InThe Sims 2,a Sim can become a zombie by paying a small amount of money when talking to the Grim Reaper. Meanwhile, a zombie inThe Sims 3is a temporary life state.
Maybe zombies will make acomeback in a futureSims 4update, but hopefully it adds more thanThe Sims 3did. It would be nice to bring back an old character through unnatural means.
10SimBot
A SimBot is similar to the Servo, but it looks like a predecessor of the Servo. There are two ways to require this robot – either by inventing them or by purchasing a lifetime reward. The male and female versions of SimBots differ in the designs of their heads, making them easy to distinguish.
SimBots purchased using lifetime rewards take on a dirty and used appearance, while an invented one is cleaner. Unlike Plumbots, SimBots can die of old age, drown, and starve. By inventing this robot, the player can give their sim a new spouse or a free maid.
9Mummy
The mummy can be found inThe Sims 3: World Adventureseither as an NPC or by a Sim being cursed. If a Sim sleeps in a cursed sarcophagus twice within a few hours, they will exit the sarcophagus as a mummy the second time. Talk about bringing home a souvenir from vacation.
Mummies also have the ability to kill Sims, as they can breath a type of fog on a Sim during a fight. If the Sim still has the curse after two weeks, they will die. On the plus side, a player could rid the neighborhood of anyone they do not like.
