Sims 4: Sim Appears To Predict Own Death With Grim Painting

screenrant.com:

A player of The Sims 4 has shared an in-game screenshot showing their Sim may have predicted their own death by way of a grim painting. Thanks to the clever autonomy of Sims, fans of the game have often found their families acting in strange or amusing ways, including one player who appeared to see their Sim die after learning of a pregnancy.

Death has been a mainstay feature of The Sims franchise, with each new iteration of the game offering new and bizarre ways for Sims to meet with the Grim Reaper and end their time in this realm. While The Sims 4 has gotten rid of the classic death-by-removing-the-pool-ladder, the title has introduced lots of other sudden death mechanics, including the possibility for Sims to die while using a Murphy bed. When a Sim dies, they're met with the fan-favorite NPC, the Grim Reaper, and while the character is typically a figure of doom and gloom, with the help of mods and cheats, Sims fans have romanced the Grim Reaper and even had children with him.

Redditor and Sims 4 player wybiek's screenshot shows their Sim may have predicted their own death with an eerie painting. The user's Sim is seen laying on the ground with the Grim Reaper hovering nearby, but a recently-completed painting still on an easel shows a sleeping cat in a position that mirrors that of the dead Sim. While the painting isn't too ominous on its own, with the deceased Sim lying nearby, it's certainly a creepy yet funny coincidence.
