The Sims 3 Secrets

Protection from Death
Go to Pleasant Rest Graveyard, and near the gate, there is a strange bush called a "Death Flower Bush" - Harvest the flower from it. Keep this flower in your sim's inventory, and if you die, you will automatically offer this flower to the Grim Reaper, who will ressurect you in exchange for it. This flower will not reappear, but there are Unknown Special Seeds (requires level 7 Gardening to plant) dotted about near the graveyard (and a few other places) which may grow another Death Flower (and sometimes more if your Sim has the Green Thumb trait to revive the plant.)

Waterlogged
Sims that drown (by getting into a pool and then having no way to get out, such as the user removing the ladder) will eventually show up as ghosts. These unhappy ghosts leave puddles of water everywhere that will eventually turn in to weeds!
