Obtaining the Music Box in Phasmophobia
Similar to other cursed items in Phasmophobia, the Music Box has a 1/7 chance of appearing on any given map. Its spawn is entirely random; luck is the key factor.
Only one Music Box can spawn per game. Once located, interact with it to pick it up, then interact again to activate it.
Using the Music Box
Several strategies involve the Music Box. Here's how it functions:
Activation initiates a song. If a ghost is within 20 meters, it will "sing along," revealing its approximate location. Within five meters, the ghost will approach the Box. You can place the activated Box on the ground as bait. The song's completion automatically closes the Box.
Note: Holding the Music Box depletes your sanity.
Triggering a Hunt with the Music Box
The Music Box can trigger either a cursed or standard hunt, depending on these circumstances:
- Throwing the active Box (not placing it down).
- Reaching 0% sanity while holding the active Box.
- The ghost approaching the Box for over five seconds.
- The ghost's proximity to the player holding the active Box.
For optimal use, carry additional tools like Smudge Sticks to manage potential hunts, identify the ghost, and complete objectives.
This concludes our guide on obtaining and using the Music Box in Phasmophobia. Consult additional resources for further game tips and strategies, including information on prestiging.
