10 Nyon Specter About Layne Coffin
You’re Not My REAL Dad
Being a teenager is hard, but it’s even harder to be the son of a possible black widow. Nyon Specter is the only child of Olive Specter, and their relationship is a bit strained in Life And Death. However, Nyon has bigger problems in the form of his new stepfather.
This Ravenwood Rumor is interesting as it confirms all the dead husbands Olive has had. Nyon’s blase mention of his numerous dead stepfathers is hilarious, and it sets up a mystery involving Layne Coffin. Why is he hanging around the graveyard? Is Olive looking to add another headstone to her private cemetery?
9 Nyon Specter About Edith
An Unlikely Friendship
Life And Death introduced the Alice’s Sorrow questline, a quest series involving several grim ghosts wandering Ravenwood. One of these ghosts is Edith, the Ring-inspired spirit haunting a well in Crow’s Crossing. Edith is a terrifying ghost who will scare any sim that gets close…except for Nyon.
It seems like Nyon and Edith have found a kinship. Nyon started talking to her after his friend Pascal Curious left town. This Rumor both confirms the existence of Nyon’s former friend, who was a Curious brother from the Sims 2, but adds depth to the horrifying Edith. Also, it’s just weirdly wholesome.
8 Alice About Edith
A Mother’s Love
Alice is the mother of Edith and a tragic ghost in her own right. Alice died well before her children, and she never found out what happened to them. This has led her to haunt Ravenwood, desperately sobbing as she searches for her children.

The Sims 4: Every Ghost Type And Its Effects
Most ghosts have unique effects and animations relating to their cause of death. We take a look at them all in this guide.
If asked for rumors, she will reveal some lore about Edith, who as it turns out, is one of her children. Edith was a sweet child before her mother’s death, and her death has made her so much worse. Alice will lament that she can’t be there to comfort her, but by completing her quest the player can set this family right.
7 Kai Aether About Himself
Ignorance Is Bliss
Most of the Sims in Ravenwood have stories involving them exploring their relationship with death. Kai Aether is a Sim who has no interest in the spooky shenanigans around him. He’s a skeptical Sim who has no desire to meet ghosts. Unfortunately for Kai, he’s already dead.
Kai Aether is a ghost who doesn’t believe in ghosts. His Rumor talks about how he’s so anti-ghost, that he’s put up a sign telling them to keep away – all the while he’s floating around. Later Rumors imply he’s coming to terms with who he is, but his initial Rumors all revolve around how in denial he is.
6 Esther Gomes About Tziporah Gomes
A Family Divided
Esther Gomes and Tziporah Gomes are two sisters divided by Death and Life. Both have died in the past but while Esther remains dead, Tziporah has eaten ambrosia to return to life. This has caused a permanent rift between the pair, as Esther believes Tziporah was influenced by her husband to revive herself.
If Sims goes to talk to Tziporah, they can get the other side of this story. Tziporah made the choice to eat ambrosia herself and wants to get her sister to do the same. These two remain estranged at the start of the Expansion, but hopefully, players can reconcile the pair.
5 Lady Ravendancer About Zelmira Gomes
Lolita Goth Confirmed
Poor Zelmira Gomes. She’s a delightful character but this Ravenwood Rumor isn’t great because it revolves around them. Lady Ravendancer, the mysterious founder of Ravenwood, might start out discussing Zelmira in this rumor but what makes it great is how she talks about about Zelmira.

The Sims: A Complete History Of The Goth Family
Anyone who knows anything about the Sims series knows a thing or two about the Goth family. But what’s the history behind them?
Lady Ravendancer mentions one Lolita Goth, a character introduced in the Sims 3 who has plagued Sims lore fanatics for over a decade. Lolita Goth’s grave can be found in the Goth family cemetery, but she doesn’t appear in the Goth family tree. Whoever she was, she’s been erased from history. Lady Ravendancer doesn’t give much information here, but knowing something about Lolita Goth is enough to make any Sims 3 fan happy.72
4 Radwan Gomes About Himself
A Life Reborn
Radwan Gomes is an interesting man. He’s married to a former ghost, brother-in-law to a current ghost, and father to a member of the Order of Lenore. And yet he remains quite serene about all the strange things in his life. What’s his secret?
As it turns out, Radwan Gomes is a Sim that has undergone Reincarnation. Introduced in Life And Death, Reincarnation allows for a Sim that has reached inner peace to be reborn as a new Sim. This new Sim will have boosted skills, and ties to their past life. While players can have their Sims reincarnate, Radwan is the first pre-made character to have undergone this process.
3 Olive Specter About Herself
Poor Unfortunate Olive
Players have always wondered about the exact relationship between Olive Specter and the many, many (many) Sims in her graveyard. Is she a malicious Sim bent on murder? Or is she merely a very unlucky mother trying her best? Well, this Rumor confirms that, at the very least, Olive is…apathetic about her dead friends.
Olive mentions in this Rumor that she is both a mortician and a widow multiple times over – and she’s much more interested in talking about her job. Olive does say that her husbands are “quite dearly missed”, but it comes across as an afterthought. While the Sim team obviously can’t confirm Olive murdered them, this Rumor adds credence to the theory that Olive is the ultimate Black Widow Challenge player.
2 Layne Coffin About Himself
Match Her Freak
When Layne Coffin was introduced as the newest fiance of Olive Specter, fans winced. He’s engaged to THE Olive Specter, and he’s got a punny name about death. This guy isn’t going to last long. But as it turns out, he might be Olive’s perfect match.

Here are the items that put the fun in ‘funeral’ in The Sims 4’s Life And Death DLC.
Layne Coffin not only wants to become a ghost, but he’s lying about his traits. He’s secretly Evil instead of Good! He’s dating Olive so she can ‘help’ him become a ghost, and she has had many husbands, but Layne seems to be the first who matches her brand of insanity. Truly a match made in Hades.
1 Olive Specter About Nyon Specter
A Mystery Decades In The Making
One of the biggest mysteries around Olive Specter was the father of her child. The Sims 2 heavily implied she was the mother of Nervous Subject, and that the father was none other than the Grim Reaper. Life And Death confirmed both rumors in one swoop.
While Nyon (Nervous Subject in this timeline) doesn’t seem to be aware of his father’s identity, it is made clear through Ravenwood Rumors and the game itself that Olive and the Grim Reaper had a fling. Olive seems reluctant to share this information with Nyon, possibly hinting at a falling out between Olive and Grim, but in Ravenwood, nothing stays buried for long.
