The Sims 4: How to Get Rid of Temperance the Ghost

Temperance is a mischievous ghost who shows up after the fifth night just to cause trouble for your Sims. You’ll probably want to get her out fast.

Temperance isn’t your average ghost. She’s stubborn, constantly meddling with paranormal stuff, breaking things, and scaring your Sims. You can spot her by watching for Sims with the Scared moodlet. That usually means she’s close by.

How to Kick Temperance Out of Your Lot

Use the Bizarre Idol from Guidry

Ask Guidry for a small Bizarre Idol to place in Temperance’s room. She detests it and will bolt out of there in no time.

You don’t even have to hand it to her directly, just put it nearby. The Idol sparks up after a bit, scaring Temperance off.

Summon Bonehilda

Just call Bonehilda. She will take on Temperance and get her to leave. However, Bonehilda might need a little while to notice the Temperance.

If Bonehilda is on the lot, she will automatically start going after Temperance forcing her to leave. This is because Temperance and Bonehilda are hinted to be sisters, and Guidry apparently chose Bonehilda over Temperance.

Trap and Release Her

Lock all the doors, and you can trap Temperance inside. Open just one, and she’ll dash out, leaving everything back to normal.

With these little tricks, you can finally get rid of her and bring peace back to your Sims’ lives in The Sims 4 Paranormal.

Learn More About Temperance

Temperance really doesn’t get along with Guidry. These two are constantly at odds and just can’t see eye to eye.

You can’t befriend Temperance. She’s always angry and grumpy, so becoming friends with her is pretty much impossible.  She has an effect that causes perpetual rage.

If your Sim takes the Paranormal Investigator career, they might run into Temperance during the Expert Paranormal Investigation gigs.

You won’t be able to summon Temperance during group seances. She never shows up for those.
