Brains….Grains….and Fairies in The Sims 3 Supernatural
New Screenshots + Details for Upcoming Expansion Pack
In today’s update, we reveal three new screenshots and take a closer look into the unexpected duo of the fluttering fairy and shuffling zombie in The Sims 3 Supernatural.
Fairies are fickle and magical supernaturals with an innate connection to the natural world. From the start of the game, fairies will naturally appear as human-like creatures with fluttering wings. Through special interactions they will be able to transform into their true form which resembles a glowing insect that is miniscule in size. Fairies can be created in Create A Sim and have a slew of new customization options available that range from choosing the shape and color of their wings to adjusting the pointiness of their ears. Fairies often bestow gifts to others and carry special auras that increase their skills as well as the skills of those around them.
In contrast to lithe and sprightly fairies, The Sims 3 Supernatural introduces moaning and roaming zombies to the game. These lumbering creatures have just two things on their mind: brains and grains! As they shuffle through the neighborhood, zombies attempt to nibble on Sims and pick at their well-manicured planter boxes. Not even other supernatural Sims are immune to zombification! A bite from one of these brain-hungry creatures can leave your Sims with temporary or long-lasting effects.
Although zombies cannot be created in Create A Sim, zombification can occur in a variety of different ways, so Sims should be on the lookout for a zombie attack at all times. We don’t want to reveal all those ways just yet, so here’s a quick preview of things to look out for:
1. A Sim can use the alchemy table to brew a zombification elixir and throw it at another Sim
2. Or, a Sim can be bitten by a meandering zombie
If your Sim is hit with zombification, don’t fret—there is a cure. Find all of the correct ingredients to brew an elixir and change them back.
Arm your Sim’s lot with some Plants vs. Zombies Peashooters to prevent zombies on the attack. This new Peashooter object comes included in the Limited Edition version, available to those who pre-order the game. In addition to the Plants vs. Zombies Peashooter, the Limited Edition of The Sims 3 Supernatural includes creepy-chic, iconic apparel from the world of Plants vs. Zombies.

New meal! Hybirds(What everyone says.)! Sure can’t wait.
On the first screen, it looks like that we’ll have new plants to grow : Mushrooms !!! They’re 5 types of them.
And what could be that little house on the right? A new ‘fairy’ doll house?
And on the third: New meal for zombie’s (A plate of brains)
I have a question – has it been mentioned if it is possible to resurrect a Sim as a zombie? Because it says “We don’t want to reveal all those ways just yet,” so it could be one of the ways not mentioned…Perhaps similar to the Resurrect-O-Nomitron from Sims 2 University? Just a thought….
Is it me, or is the one zombie by it’s lonesome in the dinner scene werewolf-esque? And there looks to be new harvestables besides the mushrooms, and did anyone else notice the pot around a growing plant just behind the grey and white stripped clothed zombie?
And did anyone else notice not all the zombies have glowing eyes. The grey and white shirted zombie (Possibly the other graden eaters too, resolution messes up too badly when zooming in on them.), and the female bathrobe zombie are the only ones that seem to have them. The dinner party zombies don’t have glowing eyes. The chef has normal brown eyes. I wonder…
Hi the sims 3 seasons now trailers ..
@Jesse James – well, there’s an article on IGN about fairies and zombies, and in it they state that any other supernatural can become a zombie, ie a hybrid of sorts, so it appears we might be able to have zombie-vampire, zombie-werewolf and zombie-fairies …

Thanks, Enjoji. Intriguing…
The brains dinner pic almost takes me back to Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, where they have the chilled monkey brains for dessert! Maybe we’ll be able to relive that! But the werewolves looked kinda weak–I hope I can make them look REALLY wolf-like with mods or something–the key is they don’t look anything like human!
