Not-So-Simstober: a (love letter) 31 day sims challenge
A staple of the season, Simstober posts have been delighting our games and feeds for the last few years. Unfortunately, word on the street is our fangtastic friends @simstober are currently busy with other haunts. But the legacy of those years of magic lives on...
Help spread the spirit of Simstober with 31 haunting prompts. Use one each day in the month of October to create the spooky sims content of your choosing (edits, renders, lookbooks, stories, CAS creations, builds, etc.). Share your creations with #simstober challenge or #simstober 2023 so the team can know they are in our macabre little hearts. 🖤
And tag or hashtag @notsosimstober where the lovely @luverofralts has offered to make an archive of this year's posts! (My hero!)
If you plan on creating content that may be sensitive or graphic, you know the drill - trigger warnings, content warnings, and keep those babies under the "read more" cut!

If thirty-one days feels frightful - have a single prompt for any day this month: Thank Boo! Send the @simstober team a spooky greeting card to let them know you appreciate the legacy they've left for many Octobers to come.
Does anyone else feel like Morticia and Bella would be besties? And get together for macabre dinners and talk about dramatic floor length dresses and eternal love?
There is my contribution for the day 3 of the @bobatrait's Bobaween 2023 !
Quite hard for me to find inspiration today, but I remembered a tattoo I've seen on IG (I do my best to find it again) with an alligator head mixed with a geisha inside its mouth.
Characters made in The Sims 4. Shinig Eyes, Alligator Skull, animations and lighting made in Blender.
