Mastering the Music Box in Phasmophobia: A Guide to Location, Use, and Hunt Triggers
Phasmophobia challenges players to identify ghost types and escape with their lives. The game's frequent updates introduce new elements, including the intriguing Music Box. This guide details how to obtain and 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 a single Music Box can spawn per game. Once located, interact with it to activate its unique properties.
Utilizing the Music Box
The Music Box offers several strategic advantages. Upon activation, it plays a melody. If a ghost is within 20 meters, it will "sing along," revealing its proximity. Within a 5-meter radius, the ghost will be drawn towards the Box. You can strategically place the activated Box on the ground to lure the ghost. The music stops and the Box closes automatically upon song completion. Note that holding the active Music Box depletes your sanity.
Triggering Hunts with the Music Box
The Music Box can initiate either a standard or a cursed hunt, depending on specific circumstances:
- Throwing the active Music Box.
- Reaching 0% sanity while holding the active Music Box.
- The ghost approaching the Music Box for over five seconds.
- The ghost's proximity to the player holding the active Music Box.
For optimal use, consider bringing supplementary tools like Smudge Sticks. These provide a survival advantage during hunts, allowing you to identify the ghost or complete other objectives.
