Being Friends With The Grim Reaper And Making Him A Housemate

[Grim Reaper]

The only sims I have had that have been able to actually interact with him are either brave, evil, or genius (on genius they can play chess with the reaper to save a family member from dying). Maybe that will help? I've never had him move in before though.

Hmm...that's helpful thanks.  I wonder if you make a sim evil, a genius and brave if you get all kinds of interactions.

Does having the Charisma challenges completed help make him your friend right away?

Not right away when I tried it. But you're making it yourself a whole lot easier though.

In one of my games my sim befriended Grim right away when her husband died. She had supermaxed Charisma. Every other time Grim came to the house (party+old sims=Grim visitig) he always wanted to chat with her and always had a blast at the party.

I may have forgotten to note this but at the Store you can download older Grim Readers uploaded by members before rhetorically first update if the game. EA had the intention to remove then all for some reasoso searching under the game Grim Readers wouldn't naked you any wiser. But trying words like Dead and such had helped me in the past.
A downloaded Grim Reaper looks great ss vampire though. Or as ghost.
Just know that occasionally when  he changes clothes you will see his pure black skin and changing clothes with the wardrobe will remove his Reaper cloths forever if I remember that correctly.
Same count for giving him make overs.

I'm going to try to get a sim with high charisma skill and see if that works.

Really??? Awesome! Anyone remember Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey? Yup, that's where they must have got it. I laughed myself half stupid with how they out-witless-ed poor old Grim, hahaha!

It's actually from the movie the Seventh Seal.  Bill & Ted was referencing that movie, and making it funny.

I've managed to get my Sims to interact with the Grim Reaper on occasion.  I'm not really sure what the formula is.  Thinking back, at least one was brave, one had high charisma, one was neither brave nor charismatic.  After Grim took one of my Sims, I had her ghost flirt with him, but he rejected a first kiss and then disappeared.  It seems like no one can interact with Grimmy unless he's planning on hanging out for a while.  So, if he makes a drink at the juice bar or sits down to read or play video games, there's your chance.

OK so I finally had the chance to interact with him.  A couple of times in a couple of different situations he stuck around.  One time he played a game on my computer, another time he went into my sim's house and read a newspaper.  Today I got to have a conversation with him.  I was doing friendly things with him for a while then he left before the "friend" category came up, after acquaintance.  I was getting so excited and thought I would be able to add him as a friend and make him a house mate.

So, my sim was charismatic as one of his already made skills and he was also evil.  I think he was up to level four or five in charisma skills and I gave him the happiness reward or learning skills faster.  So, I'm guessing your sim has to be evil and have a high charisma skill to talk to the Grim Reaper.  By the way, the sim I got to talk to him was a ghost and he died of old age.

You don't have to be evil. But the higher your Charisma level the better change you have intimately brfriending hint.
But I think the game is patched in a way that the Grim Reader won't be able to join your household.
Further than being best friends I didn't came. Even Woohoo was possible, but not making babies.
If you really want one (a reader I mean) you should rely on other members who already have it.
That, or you can use a mod to make him selectable and add him to your household that way.

I don't think you can use mods on the console versions can you?

Oh, console! I must have over read that. No, sorry, you can't. At least not that I know.
