Phasmophobia Beginner’s Ultimate Guide

このガイドでは, I will explain almost everything you need to know about phasmophobia!

Tools and equipment

The EMF meter:
A very easy to use tool, whenever the ghost does something your emf will go off, if the emf goes up to 5 that is a ghost evidence, it doesn’t mean your in danger it’s just a random activity that ghost did that was 5.

The UV light:
this light can show finger prints and footsteps, if i ghosts touches a window or a door the ghost will leave their finger prints (if it has that as evidence) there is a ghost who only has a 2/3 chance to do fingerprints so be careful. Footprints, if a ghost walks trough salt they’ll leave footprints this can be hurt by the walking sound but be aware wraiths do not give footprints.

The video camera:
This handy camera can be placed on the tripod and can be held in your own hand, you can use this to see ghost orbs, the feed of the camera is also shown in the truck. In my expierences it’s easier to spot the D.O.T.S. on camera’s.

The D.O.T.S. Projector
This little thing can be placed everywhere in the building and will light up a small area around it in green dots, if the ghost has dots as evidence piece it will sometimes walk trough the room.

The smudge sticks

A great live safer , use this in the ghost room to stop it from hunting for 60 seconds or when it hunts to repel it for a limited time, this will also stop it from chasing you for a short time wich means it also can’t kill you.

The lighter:
You can use it to light candles and smudge sticks.

The candle:
The candle prevents your santity from draining too much.

The spirit box:
If the ghost talks to you trough the spirit box it’s an evidence piece.
Some questions you can ask are:
Are you close?
Are you here?
where are you?
and my favorite:
“Are you french?”
there are also many more but these are some that will help you.

The ghost writing book:
This one is also simple one, just put it down using ‘F’ and after a while the ghost will write in it (if it’s a piece of the ghost’s evidence) if the ghost throws the book without writing in it then it’s not a writing ghost.

The parabolic mic.
A good tool to use to find the ghost in bigger maps. Whenever the something happens f.e door closing the mic will pick it up if you’re looking in the general direction of the sound, but your friends also make sounds and the parabolic mic will also pick that up so be aware.

The motion sensor:
This sensor is used to detected, motion by both player and ghost, in the truck a beep will go off if something walks trough it, 時々 2 motion sensors can be on at the same time, this doens’t mean it’s the twins and i’ll be honest i don’t even know why it happens.

The sound sensor:
This tool isn’t very effective on small maps but can help you in bigger maps, placing it will make it cover a square area infront of it, you can see it’s scanning area on the truck map, depeding on how loud the sound is you can decide where the ghost might be.

Sanity pills:
These pills will give back an amount of sanity depending on the difficulty
アマチュア: 40%
中級: 35%
プロ: 30%
悪夢: 25%

Glowstick:
This stick is like a UV light, when you use it, it will light up covering a small area this is usually used to find footprints but the UV light is still superior.

Crucifix:
This is almost mandatory for every ghost hunter:
If a ghost wants to start a hunt inside the 3 meter radius of the crucifix it will be blocked and a charge of the crucifix will be consumed
Image shows a fully destroyed crucifix.

Photo camera: the photo camera can be used to take picture of things the ghost does such as:
Moving a door (while it’s moving)
Touching a door
Throwing something
Dead people
Cursed possesions
証拠 (no dots or ghost orbs or freezing temps)
ghost showing itself

The stars show how good the photo was the more stars the more money you get.
1* you’re to far away
2* you’re still a bit to far away
3* perfect photo.
see image for star distance and star rating
距離

Thermometer:
This tool can be used to find the ghos room but be aware on higher difficulties the braker starts of wich means the entire house will be cold, so if you want to make good use out of it i advice you to first turn the breaker on, it also shows freezing temperatures but you can see that yourself by the visble breath.

(強い) 懐中電灯:
It’s a flashlight.

塩:
Every salt bottle has 3 charges you can use.
For more advice on salt see UV light.

Alright that was it for equipment.

The ghosts part 1

初めに, a huge thank you to Jetstream Sam for sharing alot of this information from her expierence, pretty much all of the ghost entries are from her.

-問題ない! Glad to see you found everything i’ve written helpful and used them in a guide! Also hello there to new players. Hope this info on all the ghost helps you understand them and their behavior! Took me a while to write but i hope it comes in handy! Have fun ghost hunting!- (Jetstream Sam)

1. 精神
“Spirits are very common ghosts. They are very powerful, but passive, only attacking when they need to. They defend their place of death to the utmost degree, killing anyone that is caught overstaying their welcome.”

弱点: A Spirit can be temporarely stopped by burning Smudge Sticks near them.

証拠
EMF 5
Spirit Box
Ghost Writing
In general the Spirit hasnt been changed and does not have anything special to look out for. The only important thing to know about the Spirit is that when burning Smudge Sticks near it it will stop wandering/hunting for 180s unlike other ghosts which is 90s, so that is double the time.

2. レイス
“Wraiths are one of the most dangerous ghosts you will find. It is also the only known ghost that has the ability of flight and has sometimes been known to travel through walls.

強さ: Wraiths almost never touch the ground, meaning it can’t be tracked by footsteps.
弱点: Wraiths have a toxic reaction to salt

証拠
EMF 5
Spirit Box
D.O.T.S. Projector

As you may have noticed the journal never mentioned anything about Wraiths being able to see through doors, the journal has never mentioned Wraiths being able to see through doors, even in the earlier version of Phasmophobia this was never mentioned. To this day I am still unsure whether they can or cannot.

Wraiths can be easily identified with salt. All ghosts leave uv footprintswhen running through salt. This only happens when the footsteps are heavy audible running footsteps, not to be confused with heavy audible walking footsteps. Wraiths are the only ghost that NEVER leave uv footprints, but still leave footprints in the salt pile.

Wraiths cannot fly or travel through walls. They are capable of teleporting to a random player when wandering around. 注意深い, BEFORE the bigger updates, all ghost except the Banshee, Wraith and Phantom stayed close to their rooms. This has been changed All ghosts can now wander far from their rooms Keep in mind its been reduced slightly again thus with ghosts that aren’t the Banshee, Wraith or Phantom this isn’t incredibly far.

Whether Wraiths are more aggressive after walking through salt is still unsure.

Wraiths do not fly, their model will still walk during events and/or hunts.

3. ファントム
“A Phantom is a ghost that can possess the living, inducing fear into those around it. They are most commonly summoned from Ouiji Boards.”

強さ: Looking at a Phantom will drop you sanity considerably faster.
弱点: Taking a photo of the Phantom will make it temporarily disappear

証拠
Spirit Box
Fingerprints
D.O.T.S. Projecter

The journal mentions that Phantoms are most commonly summoned through Ouiji Boards. This is just ghost theory. This is not something that is part of the actual game. One cannot use the Ouiji Board to summon a Phantom or to identify a Phantom. However it used to be a bug that when using a Ouiji Board with a Phantom as the ghost footsteps would be heard next to the player with succesful questions. This has bee fixed.

The journal mentions that looking at a Phantom drains your sanity faster. This is true. While with any other ghost the sanity drain from looking at them us around 0.2 sanity/s with the Phantom its around 0.4 sanity/s.

Phantoms can wander far from the ghost room to try and take its chance to drain a players sanity. It’ll show itself far away from the ghost room more often then other ghosts. This is to help it attack sooner.

Phantoms can be identified by taking a picture of them during an event. After the picture is taken the Phantom will disappear and wont be visible. It will however still continue its event, making noise or walking towards a player. The extra sanity drop from looking at a Phantom is also nullified once the picture is taken and will return to normal sanity loss.

All ghost flicker during hunts. This means from shadow or completely visible to invisible. Phantoms are the only ghosts that do this slower, this being invisible more often and being harder to see.
Phantoms should NOT appear on photo’s.

4. Poltergeist
“One of the most famous ghosts, the Poltergeist. Known to manipulate objects around it to spread fear into its victims.

強さ: Poltergeists can throw multiple objects at once.
弱点: With nothing to throw, Poltergeists become powerless.

証拠
Spirit Box
Fingerprints
Ghost Writing

Poltergeists can throw multiple objects at once. The best way to test is to put 3 candles into a triangular shape and observe. If atleast 2 get moved at once you can be quite positive its a Poltergeist. Now try not to confuse this with The Twins as both like to interact with the environment at the same time.

Poltergeists like moving/throwing items. This can be an easy giveaway. Try not to confuse this with the Oni or the Shade, both are very active ghosts. Yes to your surprise Shades are active ghosts.

Poltergeists will drain more sanity with throwing/moving items then other ghosts when you are in LoS (Line of Sight) of this item. The sanity drop is twice the amount of other ghosts throwing/moving items. For any other ghost this drop is 1% 正気, for the Poltergeist this is doubled so its 2% (per item.)

Poltergeists can move multiple doors at once, try not to confuse this with the ghost event of multiple doors closing. All ghosts do this event. So make sure its doors opening, not closing.

5. バンシー
“The singing siren, known for attracting its victims through song. It has been known to single out its prey before making a killing blow

強さ: A Banshee will only target one person at a time.
弱点: Banshees fear the Crucifix and will be less aggressive near one.

証拠
Fingerprints
Ghost Orb
D.O.T.S. Projector

Banshees will pick a random player at the start of the round to stalk and target throughout the entire mission until they are dead. If the chosen target stays outside the house the Banshee will result to a random player until its original target enters the house again.

All players can touch the Banshee during the hunt if those players are not the current target.

The Banshee will focus on its target, ignoring all other players and will only do its events near its target.

The Banshee has gotten a new behavior trait. Banshee’s will prefer all singing events over any events, so if you have a ghost that hums or sings often you can be positive this is a Bansee.

Not only is the character trait above new but they’ve also gotten a Banshee specific event which can only be heard on the paramic. It sounds kinda like an exhale, this event is rare.

Banshees fear the Crucifix. This meaning that the Crucifix works better on them. With any other ghost the Crucifix range to stop a hunt is 3m, meaning to ghost needs to initiate a hunt within 3 or less meters of the Crucifix. With the Banshee this is increased to 5m.

6. ジン
“A Jinn is a territorial ghost that will attack when threatened. It also has been known to be able to travel at significant speed.”

強さ: A Jinn will travel at a faster speed if its victim is far away.
弱点: Turning off the location’s power source will prevent the Jinn from using its ability.

証拠
EMF 5
Fingerprints
Freezing Temperatures

Jinns cannot turn of the breaker at any times because of their ghost ability.

Because they are territorial ghosts the Jinn can drain 25% sanity if you are within 3m of it.

It also seems that even after you smudge it during a hunt it will still be able to find you just fine, as if the wandering effect of the smudge stick never happened. This ability only links back to the patch notes of the identity changes “These ghosts love to chase, hide before they see you!”

If the power is on and a player is in LoS with the Jinn during a hunt and is further away then 4m the Jinn will speed up to about 2.5m/s. Once the player is 2m or less away from the Jinn it will gradually slow down again. Normal ghost speed during hunts is around 1.5m/s

With the power off the Jinn will hunt at a normal speed of 1.5m/s, 0,1m/s slower then the players walk.

Hunts at 50%> 正気

7. Mare
“A Mare is the source of all nightmares, making it most powerful in the dark.””

強さ: A Mare will have an increased chance to attack in the dark
弱点: Turning the lights on around the Mare will lower its chance to attack

証拠
Spirit Box
Ghost Orb
Ghost Writing

Mares are less active in the light. Keeping the lights off is a good way to gather evidence or photos from interactions.

Mares are more likely to turn off lights instead of doing other interactions.

Mares cannot turn on any lights as they prefer the dark.

Mares are more likely to smash light bulbs then other events.

The Mare has a new ability, it is rare but it does happen. They can instantly turn of the lights when you’ve turned them on, so right after you turned them on the Mare can turn them off. You can test this by slowly turning on and off a light. If it turns off almost instantly and you know you haven’t flipped the switch it’s a Mare. (I’ll show below.)

Mares will likely wander to dark rooms and avoid the light.

Mares are able to hunt at 60% sanity in the dark. In the light this is reduced to 40%

Hunts at 60%> sanity in the dark
Hunts at 40%> sanity in the light

8. Revenant
“A Revenat is a violent ghost that will attack indiscriminately. Their speed can be deceiving, as they are slow while dormant: しかし, as soon as they hunt they can move incredibly fast.”

強さ: A Revenant will travel at a significantly faster speed when hunting their prey
弱点: Hiding from the Revenant will cause it to move very slowly

証拠
Ghost Orb
Ghost Writing
Freezing Temperatures

When in LoS with a Revenant during a hunt they’ll reach speeds of 3m/s. Being 0.2m/s slower then the players running. Due to this speed Revenant easily catch up to players as the player can only run for 3 秒, gradually slowing down afterwards back to 1.6m/s resulting in death.

How slow the Revenant exactly is when hiding is unsure. But its positive to say its slower then the normal ghost speed, which is around 1.5m/s

9. シェード
“A Shade is known to be very shy. There is evidence to suggest that a Shade will stop all paranormal activity if there are multiple people nearby.”

強さ: Shades are much harder to find
弱点: The ghost will not enter a hunt if there are multiple people nearby

証拠
EMF 5
Ghost Writing
Freezing Temperatures

Shades are very inactive if multiple people are in its room. Shades are no longer less active when there’s less people in the house/current room.

Shades will do way less interactions and will be harder to find, Shades barely do anything in this update.

However the shade will drain your sanity with a sneaky, yet slightly frightening ghost event, which is the fog cloud flying towards and then the sharp breath in your ear.

Shades do not hunt when there’s more then 1 person in the ghost room. Incase of 2 players Shades can start hunting once one of the 2 players leave.

10. 悪魔
“A Demon is one of the worst ghosts you can encounter. It has been known to attack without reason.”

強さ: Demons will initiate hunts more often than other ghosts
弱点: Demons will take less sanity when answering through a Ouiji Board

証拠
Fingerprints
Ghost Writing
Freezing Temperatures

Demons can hunt a lot for the very simple reason that they have a lower hunt cool down. Their cool down is around 20-30s meaning that after a hunt is finished, not even half a minute later another can begin.

Smudging the Demon in its room will make it stop hunting for 60s. For all other ghosts this is 90s.

Demons are able to hunt at 100% 正気, although its not guaranteed.

Hunts at 100%> sanity when using its ability
Hunts at 70%> 正気

11. Yurei
“A Yurei is a ghost that has returned to the physical world, usually for the purpose of revenge or hatred.”

強さ: Yureis have been known to have a stronger effect on peoples sanity
弱点: Smudging the Yurei’s place of death will trap it temporarily, reducing how much it wanders

証拠
Ghost Orb
Freezing Temperatures
D.O.T.S. Projector

Yureis drop your sanity by 0.4%/s when manifesting. You dont need to look at them during this manifestation unlike Phantoms.

Yureis will prefer events that drain your sanity by 10%. These events are the ones were you can here the ghost exhale or breathe in your ears.

Yureis can drop your sanity by 14%. This is an old ability they’ve had. To know when they do this is to look at doors. If the Yurei closes multiple doors at once it is using that ability. The Yurei will also not spawn while doing this, other ghosts (such as the Poltergeist) will be visible.

During a hunt a Yurei will drop your sanity by 0.4%/s if you are withing 10m of the Yurei

Smudging the ghost room will cause the Yurei to stop wandering/walking out its room for 90s. To test this you can use motion sensors. If you smudged the room and have no motion sensors going off outside the room for 90s you can be positive this is a Yurei.

12. Oni
“Onis love to scare their victims as much as possible before attacking. They are often seen in their physical form, guarding their place of death”

強さ: Onis are more active when people are nearby and have been seen moving objects at great speed
弱点: Onis are very active, making them easier to find

証拠
EMF 5
Freezing Temperatures
D.O.T.S. Projector

Onis are the completely opposite of Shades. Whilst both can be very active at times. Onis are very active when people are nearby whilst Shades become less active. Onis also hunt less or not at all if nobody or a single person is around whilst Shades are known to hunt more if this is the case.

Because of the Oni’s identity, it now does way more ghost events then other ghosts. You’ll see the Oni appear more often and it’ll do loads of interactions!

Onis can sometimes throw objects at greater speeds, this also includes throwing them further away.

Onis not hunting often with a single person nearby can be very noticeable. One time i played and everyone died except me. I could sit in the corner of the room for more then 15 min while AFK without dying, or it hunting. When i went to look for more evidence i spent atleast an additional 15min gathering evidence as it was too inactive. Concluding you can be in the ghost room alone for 30min without any hunts. Note that this isnt always the case.

13. Yokai
“Yokai are common ghosts that are attracted to human voices. They can usually be found haunting family homes.”

強さ: Talking near a Yokai will anger it, increasing the chance of an attack
弱点: When hunting, a Yokai can only hear voices close to it

証拠
Spirit Box
Ghost Orb
D.O.T.S. Projector

Yokais can only hear voices that are less then 2m away from it when wandering. 意味, if you are 2m or less away from the Yokai and talking a lot it can initiate a hunt. Being further away does not initiate hunts.

The more you talk to/near a Yokai, the more active it gets.

The sound one needs to make is not only the trigger sentences or words. Any noise can anger a Yokai, such as laughing, coughing or any background noise that comes through your mic. The general sound level is what increases the chance of a hunt. The more noise, the higher the chance of a hunt.

During a hunt the Yokai can only hear voices that are less then 2m away from it. While with any other ghost this hearing distance is 8m. 2m in Phas is a very short distance. Its about the same distance of the fridge in Willow Street House to the doorway right next to it. A distance of less then 2m is about the same as the right corner of the white closet in the hall infront of the bathroom in Willow to behind the bathroom door.

Yokais can hunt above 50% sanity if you are talking near it. The highest so far is around 80% 正気

Hunts at approximately 80%> sanity when talking near it
Hunts at 50%> sanity when quiet

14. Hantu
“A Hantu is rare ghost that thrives in the coldest climates. The cold seems to make them more aggressive and empowered.”

強さ: Lower temperatures allow the Hantu to move at faster speeds
弱点: Hantus move slower in warmer areas

証拠
Fingerprints
Ghost Orb
Freezing Temperatures

Before we dive further into the Hantu lets talking about room temperatures. All rooms are cold in the start of the mission since the breaker is off. Once the breaker is on rooms will start to gradually heat up, this takes about 2 分. All rooms heat up and different speeds. The ghost room will stay generally cold and sometimes even freezing. When the breaker is off rooms will cool down again, again some rooms at higher speeds then others.

Hantus are never the same speed as the other ghosts.(non speed ghosts, everything that arent Jinns, Revenants and Raijus.) Hantus will either be slower or faster then the general ghost speed, which is 1.5m/s. How fast a Hantu is in a warm room when not in LoS is unknown. While the exact speed for a Hantu in cold rooms is also unkown all we can say is that its just a tiny bit slower then the Raiju speed so probably around 2m/s.

15. Goryo
“When a Goryo passes through a D.O.T.S. Projector, using a video camera is the only way to see it.”

強さ: A Goryo will usually only show itself on camera if there are no people nearby
弱点: They are rarely seen far from their place of death

証拠

Theres not much to say about a Goryo. The only thing you need to know is that Goryos only give D.O.T.S. evidence on camera when there’s no one nearby.

Do note that ALL GHOSTS have the ability to drain 20% sanity at random. Although very rare this is a ghostpower that every single ghost has. So our Goryo does aswell. Be careful with this

16. Myling
“A Myling is a very vocal and active ghost. They are rumoured to be quiet around when hunting their prey.

強さ: A Myling is known to be quieter when hunting
弱点: Mylings more frequently make paranormal sounds

証拠
EMF 5
Fingerprints
Ghost Writing

The best way to identify a Myling is by listening closely during hunts. Especially to its footsteps. While the voice helps you identify it aswell, footsteps were confirmed to be what made them different from other ghosts.

Footsteps during a hunt with all other ghosts can be heard from 20m away. With a Myling this is only half, thus being 10m. With all other ghosts the volume of the footsteps are 50% of their volume when 10 or more meters away. With a Myling this would be at 5m.

10m is also the distance that your equipment starts to freak out on. So this can help you identify aswell. Say the ghost is hunting and you dont hear any footsteps, suddenly your flashlight flickers but you only hear footsteps a second afterwards, this means the ghost is a Myling.

Mylings should make more paranormal sounds. One of these sounds is the new whispering ghosts have gotten. While all ghosts can whisper the Myling seems to do it more often, i will post an example below.

17. Onryo
“The Onryo is often referred to as “The Wrathful Spirit”. It steals souls from dying victims’ bodies to seek revenge. This ghost has been known to fear any form of fire, and will do anything to be far from it.”

18. ツインズ
“These ghosts have been reported to mimic each other’s actions. They alternate their attacks to confuse their prey.”

強さ: Either Twin can be angered and initiate an attack on their prey
弱点: The Twins will often interact with the environment at the same time

証拠
EMF 5
Spirit Box
Freezing Temperatures

One interesting thing about the Twins and an easy give away is how they hunt. Both Twins hunt differently. One is faster then the other, and one hunts more often. The Twins are divided into the base ghost and the decoy. The base ghost gives you evidence while the decoy messes with the environment to confuse you.

The base ghost hunts at 90% of the normal ghost speed. Which means its 10% slower then ghosts that walk at 1.5m/s. The decoy however, is the opposite. The decoy hunts at 110% of the normal ghost speed, meaning its 10% faster then ghosts that walk at 1.5m/s.

While the decoy is fast, it rarely hunts, making The Twins slightly harder to identify. The base ghost hunts the most, being slightly slower then other ghosts it isnt that big of trouble, although it speeds up when in LoS.

19. Raiju
“A Raiju is a demon that thrives on electrical current. While generally calm, they can become agitated when overwhelmed with power.”

強さ: A Raiju can siphon power from nearby electrical devices, making it move faster
弱点: Raiju are constantly disrupting electronic equipment when attacking, making it easier to track

証拠
EMF 5
Ghost Orb
D.O.T.S. Projector

Raiju use electronic devices that are currently on to their advantage. Raiju can reach speeds of 2.5m/s in a hunt when in 8m of a currently active electronic, such as a camera or D.O.T.S.

For all ghosts the electronics start flickering or freaking out at 10m. With the Raiju this distance is bigger, how much bigger is unsure.

The distance a Raiju needs to be from active electronics to speed up depends on the map size. On smaller maps this distance is much smaller.

When passive, a Raiju can initiate hunts at 65% sanity if its currently near active electronics. These either being in your hand or on the floor/walls or even being the lights.

Hunts at 65%> sanity when near active electronics
Hunts at 50%> sanity when not near active electronics

20. Obake
“Obake are terrifying shape-shifters, capable of taking on many forms. They have been seen taking humanoid shapes to attract their prey.”

強さ: When interacting with the environment, an Obake will rarely leave a trace
弱点: Sometimes this ghost will shapeshift, leaving behind unique evidence

証拠

Mentioned in the journal is that Obake shapeshift to humanoid shapes. They don’t do this. Its been confirmed by the dev that they don’t actually shapeshift.

Obake rarely leave fingerprints. All fingerprints ghosts now have garuanteed fingerprints when touching anything that shows fingerprints (ドア, closets, スイッチ, space key, テント, stalls, picknick bench…), so all fingerprints ghost has 100% chance of fingerprints on items. These fingerprints stay for 2 分 (atleast so we’re told). Obake however only have 75% chance to leave fingerprints, and these fingerprints stay 1 分.

Obake can leave behind unique fingerprints no other ghost can. These fingerprints are a hand with 6 fingers instead of 5. This is an easy give away, but it doesnt happen very often. (i’ll post an example)

21. The Mimic
“The Mimic is an elusive, mysterious, copycat ghost that mirrors traits and behaviours from others, including other ghost types.”

強さ: “We’re unsure what this ghost is capable of. 気をつけて. -ジャーナル” Mimic’s will mimic the behaviour of other ghost types.
弱点: Several reports have noted ghost orb sightings near Mimics

証拠
Spirit Box
Fingerprints
Freezing Temperatures

Mimics are incredibly dangerous ghosts, I would call them even more dangerous then the Raiju. The reason behind this is that they easily fool you by acting like another ghost type, this can be incredibly deadly.

Mimics ONLY MIMIC BEHAVIOUR they do not mimic evidence. The only evidence they mimic is ghost orbs. So next time you have orbs keep in mind it could still be a mimic, I would observe the ghosts behaviour and other evidences before writing orbs down.

Since Mimics mimic behaviour they are the worst to deal with. Some ghost behaviour is incredibly deadly and the Mimic can mimic any behaviour, thus do more deadly things at once.

Examples of what the Mimic mimics are disappearing on camera/after having picture taken like the Phantom, Hantu’s current freezing breath during a hunt, Mare/Demon/Banshee early hunts, Revenant/Jinn/Raiju speeds etc

Because of this they are a pain in the ass and one must be very careful when dealing with one.

The cursed possesions

The cursed possesion is an item that spawns everytime, it can help you find where the ghost is, or help you get objectives done, but these items shoud be used with care.

The location of all cursed items will be in the chaper about maps.-

Ouiji Board
“These commonly found wooden boards can be used to communicate with ghosts. If you find one activate it by placing down a planchette and use your voice to ask questions. Certain questions may lower your sanity more than others, especially if the ghost responds.”

The Ouiji board has been changed, spawn locations are now different and the Ouiji Board breaks. You can however still take a picture of the Ouiji Board, the classificaction of this hasn’t been changed.

The Ouiji Board has gotten a new skin as well and works slightly different. It no longer spawns with the planchette on it and it wont glow when being used. You need to place the planchette yourself by clicking on it or right clicking if its in your hand. After that you just ask the questions you want answered. Always say Goodbye when done asking questions.

Like before the Ouiji Board will drain sanity when questions are asked. The Ouiji Board can now burn and shatter into pieces, initiating a hunt. I’m fairly certain this has to do with your current sanity.

幽霊の鏡
“If you find this oval shaped mirror lying around, you can use it to find the room where the ghost is most commonly found. Pick it up and activate it to peer into the spectral realm. 注意深い: seeing into this realm will drain your sanity rapidly.”

The Mirror can be used to find the exact ghost room, this can be useful for bigger maps, like campsite and prison. As stated above, the mirror drains sanity when peered through. This is about 10% per look, which is at approximately 1-2 秒 (a single look is the look in between right clicks.) When never leaving the spectral realm the mirror will eventually break, initiating a hunt. If you survive the hunt, i recommend taking sanity pills cause your sanity will be at 0% sharp.

You can take a picture of the mirror for extra cash.

ブードゥー教徒の人形
“These eerie, cute dolls are known for causing harm to others. Picking up one and activating it will force the ghost to interact with the environment. Pins are chosen at random, and certain pins seem to affect you more than it effects the ghost.

The Voodoo Doll is an incredibly common item. So far its the one i’ve had the most. When holding the doll it will bounce along with your movements (Funny Jiggle Physics) and right clicking will stab one of the pins into the doll, making the ghost interact. しかし, when the pin in the heart gets stabbed a hunt will start. This pin will always initiate a hunt and the pins are random so be careful, you might stab this one first and get into a sticky situation.

I almost forgot. Every stab drains sanity. Each stab drains about 10% 正気.

And of course taking a picture of the voodoo doll will give you extra cash.

召喚サークル
“Some locations have pentagrams drawn in blood, surrounded by blood red candles. Lighting all five candles will summon the ghost and trap it temporarily: perfect for taking photos. Make sure you escape before the ghost breaks free.

The summoning circle is incredibly handy and also incredibly useless. It depends on how you play. For taking a picture of the ghost it is good, but leaves you with a hunt. It would be better to wait for a manifestation to then take a picture. After lighting all candles and starting the hunt the ghost will ALWAYS know your location when alone, in multiplayer this doesnt seem to be the case. Sanity drain is unsure.

音楽箱
“This intricate little Music Box has been created with the sole purpose of communicating with the dead. Holding the box and activating it starts playing a spectral song, if you listen closely the ghost can sometimes be heard singing along to this haunting melody. Don’t get too close, you may interrupt it’s musical trance and anger it.”

The Music Box is relatively small and sometimes hard to find cause of its size. When holding it right click to activate the music box. Make sure you are a fair distance from the ghost room, the ghost will walk towards you when playing it if you are a little too close. This will then anger it cause it got too close to you, causing a hunt to happen.

In general the music box has no actual use, it could be used for taking ghost pictures but at your own cost of possibly interrupting. It is a nice tune to listen to and taking a picture of it will give you extra cash.

Using the music box drains about 80% 正気.

also stop giving me this thing on willow!

タロットカード
“These mystical cards are the most intriguing item we’ve found during previous investigations. Each deck contains ten random cards that all have different paranormal properties. When drawn they can trigger different effects on the team and any nearby ghost. Whilst they can be useful, they can also have negative effects, のような: sanity drain, ghost attacks and even death. Many of these cards are still yet to be discovered, who knows whats possible.”

The Tarot Cards can be incredibly useful to regain sanity or get ghost interactions. Or perhaps to even revive a fallen team member.

The cards are as follows

太陽: Fully restores sanity to 100%. Spawn percentage 5%
月: Immediately drops sanity to 0%. Spawn percentage 5%
ザ・タワー: Causes an interaction. Spawn percentage >17%
The Wheel of Fortune: Either increases the player’s sanity by 25% if it burns green, or decreases it by 25% if it burns red. Spawn percentage >17%
悪魔: Triggers a Ghost Event. Spawn percentage 5%
The High Priestess: Randomly selects one dead teammate and resurrects them. The resurrected teammate will respawn at the location of their corpse.
If you already pulled the card before a player died the player will instantly respawn. Spawn percentage 2%
絞首刑執行人: Instantly kills the player. Spawn percentage 1%
死: Triggers a cursed hunt. Spawn percentage >17%
隠者: Applies an effect akin to smudge sticks on the ghost for a short while, by preventing it from moving out of its current room or hunting. Spawn percentage 10%
The Fool: Appears as another card at first, before turning into The Fool just before it burns. This card does not have any effect on the player. Spawn percentage 17%, during a hunt 100%
