Phasmophobia: Music Box Guide for Ghost Hunters

Mastering the Music Box in Phasmophobia: A Guide to Location, Use, and Hunt Triggers

Phasmophobia challenges players to identify ghost types and escape alive. The game's updates have introduced various items, including the Music Box. This guide details how to obtain and effectively utilize this valuable tool.

Locating the Music Box

Like other cursed objects in Phasmophobia, the Music Box has a 1/7 chance of appearing on any given map. Its spawn is random; there's no guaranteed method to find one. Only one Music Box can spawn per game. Once located, activate it by interacting with it.

Utilizing the Music Box

The Music Box offers several strategic advantages:

Upon activation, the Music Box plays a tune. If a ghost is within 20 meters, it will "sing along," revealing its proximity. Within 5 meters, the ghost will approach the Box. You can place the activated Box on the ground to lure the ghost. The Box automatically stops playing and closes after the song concludes.

Note: Holding the Music Box depletes your sanity.

Triggering Hunts with the Music Box

The Music Box can initiate either a standard or cursed hunt, depending on these conditions:

• Throwing the active Music Box.
• Reaching 0% sanity while holding the active Music Box.
• The ghost moving towards the Music Box for over five seconds.
• The ghost's proximity to the player holding the active Music Box.

Strategic Recommendations

For optimal use, carry additional tools like Smudge Sticks. These provide a survival advantage during hunts, allowing you to identify the ghost type or complete objectives.
