The Sims 4’s big ghost overhaul expansion turned the afterlife into an entire occult sim experience with new ghost abilities and a Soul’s Journey quest to dog your sim past the grave. This full list of Life & Death cheats can help you max out your Thanatology skills, cheat to the top of the new active career as a Reaper, or quickly unlock those ultimate abilities for your ghost sims.
See our main list of Sims 4 cheats for a refresher on all the basics, or scroll down to get the trait codes you need for defying death.
Life & Death Career cheats
There are two new career paths in the Live & Death Expansion: Undertaker and Reaper. If you want to become a scythe-wielding dealer of death, the Reaper career is the objective-based active career you’re looking for.

Life & Death new death cheats
There are a few new ways to die in Life & Death, technically, but mostly they’re just new contexts for existing deaths like old age. You can find all the relevant base game death cheats in our Sims 4 cheats page. The one truly new death in the expansion is the Murder of Crows.
I have not managed to find any cheat code for the Murder of Crows death. Below I will tell you how to achieve the death quickest but I have not found a way to undo it, so proceed only if you’re certain!
How to get murdered by crows
- Place a “Grim Standard Ascendant Crow” from Buy Mode
- Enable testingcheats true in the cheat console
- Shift + Click the crow and select Cheat Relationship > Set Min Friendship
- Normal click the crow and select Socialize > Provoke
- Repeat the provoke action several times until the crow is “dangerously” angry
How to get unmurdered (in theory)
As mentioned above, there is not a known trait cheat to remove the death by crow status easily. Below is a way to un-ghost yourself with cheats otherwise but this method has not worked for me and when re-entering Live Mode my sim remains a crow’d ghost. Here’s how to remove a cause of death:
- Enable testingcheats true in the cheat console
- Enable cas.fulleditmode in the cheat console
- Shift + Click your sim and select “Modify in CAS”
- Open the “cause of death” panel in the top left
- Hover over the currently selected death and click the x to remove it
- Click the ✔️ in the bottom right to save changes and exit Create-A-Sim
Life & Death skill cheats
The Life & Death expansion comes with just one new skill track for Thanatology. Use the cheat testingcheats true before setting a skill level via cheat code.

Life & Death trait cheats
There are three new standard sim traits in this expansion: Chased By Death, Macabre, and Skeptical. You can easily add or remove these by:
- Using testingcheats true in the cheat console
- Using cas.fulleditmode in the cheat console
- Clicking your sim and selecting “Modify in CAS”
- Find all three in the “Lifestyle” traits section
You can also add or remove these traits in the cheat console with the codes below.
Personality traits
❗ Remember that Macabre and Skeptical are mutually exclusive traits. You’ll have to remove one before you can add the other.
