Roared and cracked through the black sky. Dark clouds filled the skies, and thunder and lightning. Ipsie called on her magic, a spell so powerful it could of killed them both. He succeeded.Īs he went back for his second strike. In the moment of a heated discussion, went to strike Ipsie. He had gotten fired from his job, taking his frustration on Ipsie blaming her for his losses. His job on the city council made him bitter, angry, distant and above all abusive. Her magic is the one thing that Made ISPIE different. They led a "normal" life for several years but Brock became intolerable towards Ipsies "magical" ways and told her it was him or her magic. How possible was that really? However Ipsie tried.Īfter highschool she married her sweetheart. As her family beggedįor her to lead a normal life, with the last name Deatham. The residents of riverveiw knew something wasn't right about Ipsie or her family, although she was more open about her affairs. Growing up in the small town of riverveiw Ipsie had a hard time "fitting in". An ideal family which has never been real.Ipsie is unlike any "regular" sim, she has powers beyond her belief. Today, however, they are just the Does, the nobodies and the everybodies at the same time.
Who knows what kind of sims they used to be in the past, how free-spirited they were. Also, it's safe to say that they pretty much have no name, so others can put their own name in place of John/Jane Doe and relate to them and strive to be like them. So, the Doe family is the walking, living, breathing advertisement of traditional family values, the unattainable ideal of the family. Naturally, someone who doesn't want their victims to remember who they are would eliminate all possibility of them remembering anything from their past - and that includes clearing out the basement, where all that pesky memorabilia is stored! And since an empty basement raises questions (who in the world has a basement and stores NOTHING AT ALL there? :D), it's a good idea to get rid of the basement entirely, as if it never was in the house. One of the methods that help patients with amnesia remember things is showing them items that have some connection to their past. Now, how does the non-existing basement fits into this theory? Think about what goes into the basement - along with random junk and broken items, there are old photo albums, old trophies, all the things one wants to preserve because they remind them of some special occasion or plain good old times, but has no reason to keep them on display at all times. Someone has taken the entire family, hypnotized them to behave the certain, old-fashioned way, placed them in the world where no one would question or challenge the worldview they're meant to promote (Midnight Hollow) and left them be. Therefore, the most plausible idea is hypnosis. Given that they all can age and Jane Doe is pregnant with another kid, this excludes the idea that they are mechanical, like in Stepford Wives. A family like that would not be possible in real life, since, you know, actual humans (sims?) are imperfect. Successful husband, caring wife, well-mannered children.

They are a perfect nuclear family, like from the 60s TV commercial or sitcom.Now, both of those sims are alive and well. John Doe and Jane Doe are PLACEHOLDER names for when the real name is irrelevant (like in an example) or unknown (like unidentified murder victims).Okay, my theory about the Doe family goes like this. If anyone here is also fascinated with this household, I'd love to hear your theories about them! I will post my own theory about them in a comment. The most extensive discussion on them I've managed to find is this forum thread. There are plenty of theories about them on the Internet, but nothing solid, since EA has not developed their story as much as other families' in this world. It has this Stepford Wives vibe, which is my favourite type of horror.
To me personally, this is the most fascinating family in Midnight Hollow. You can find more information about them at The Sims Wiki. Nothing mysterious seems to be happening here, but didn't their house used to have a basement? He works hard but comes home in enough time to teach his kids a lesson or two about life and talk to his wife about her day. He feels successful in life and supported by his family. She's neat, nurturing, loves her kids, and can make a mean pot roast! Meanwhile, John is rising in the ranks at his corporate job. Jane is the perfect housewife, from her neat hairstyle to her fashionable yet conservative dress. Hello, /r/Sims3! So, there is this family in Midnight Hollow, the Doe household.
