About Phasmophobia

Grab an EMF Reader and Spirit Box, then investigate haunted maps to identify 20+ ghost types before they hunt you. Voice-driven co-op that punishes low...

Phasmophobia Description Image

In Phasmophobia online you don't shoot ghosts — you gather evidence on them. You enter a haunted house as a paranormal investigator, plant a video camera, sweep an EMF Reader across a room, and whisper the ghost's name into an open mic to see if it whispers back. Every tool is a physical object you pick up and hold, not a menu button, which is what makes this co-op horror game so tense.

The loop is simple to describe and terrifying to survive: visit a haunted location, collect supernatural proof, work out which ghost type you're facing, and escape before your sanity runs out. Since the game uses full voice integration, you can talk to teammates by proximity and even provoke the entity by saying its name aloud on a Spirit Box.

This ghost hunting game rewards patience over panic — the more evidence you log correctly, the more you learn to read each haunting.

How Phasmophobia Online Co-op Investigations Work

Each contract drops your team at a haunted site with a truck full of gear. Your job is to find three pieces of evidence that pin down the ghost. Guess correctly and you cash out; guess wrong or die and your reward shrinks. Phasmophobia online multiplayer supports up to four investigators, and full crossplay-style voice chat means the ghost can hear you when your mic is live near it.

Reading the Evidence with Your Equipment

Core tools include the EMF Reader (spikes to level 5 near activity), the Spirit Box (ghosts answer spoken questions in the dark), the Thermometer (find freezing temperatures rooms), and Night Vision Cameras. Ghost writing books, UV fingerprints, and DOTS projectors round out the evidence set.

Sanity Is Your Real Health Bar

You have no traditional health — you have sanity. It drains in the dark and near paranormal events. When it dips low enough, the ghost enters a hunt, the lights cut, and you must hide or run. Managing sanity pills and staying near lights is survival.

Phasmophobia Ghosts and the Cheat Sheet

The game features over 20 Phasmophobia ghosts, each with unique tells. A Spirit favors smudge sticks; a Demon hunts early and often; a Mare hates light. Many players keep a Phasmophobia cheat sheet open to cross-reference evidence combos and rule out ghost types faster. Learning these tells is the deepest part of the game.

Cursed Possessions: High Risk Items

Cursed possessions like the Ouija Board, Monkey Paw, and Tarot Cards grant powerful information or effects — locating the ghost, granting a wish — but each drains sanity or invites danger. Smart teams weigh the payoff before touching one.

How to Play Phasmophobia: Getting Started

New players learning Phasmophobia how to play should start on Amateur difficulty with a small map. Set up your camera, note the ghost room, then bring in tools one at a time. On PC the game supports both keyboard/mouse and full controller schemes, and console versions run native pads.

Advanced Ghost Hunting Tactics

Turn off your flashlight and hold still during a hunt — ghosts track movement and sound. Use a crucifix within range of the ghost room to prevent hunts from starting. Whisper on the Spirit Box only when you need that specific evidence, since talking near the entity feeds its aggression.

Frequently asked questions

How do you identify ghost types in Phasmophobia?
You collect three pieces of evidence — like EMF Level 5, Spirit Box response, freezing temperatures, ghost writing, UV fingerprints, or DOTS — then cross-reference them in your journal. Each combo points to a specific ghost among the 20+ types. Many players use a cheat sheet to rule out ghosts faster.
What causes freezing temperatures in Phasmophobia?
Freezing temperatures are one of the evidence types, appearing in the ghost's favorite room when it's active. Bring a thermometer and watch for readings below 0°C, and look for breath fog on your character. Certain ghosts like the Hantu behave differently in cold rooms, so temperature also hints at behavior.
How does the Spirit Box work in Phasmophobia?
The Spirit Box lets you ask the ghost spoken questions in a dark room with your mic on. If the ghost responds through the device, that's your Spirit Box evidence. Turn off lights and stand near the ghost room for the best chance of a reply.
Can you play Phasmophobia online with friends?
Yes, Phasmophobia online multiplayer supports up to four investigators working together in co-op. Proximity voice chat means teammates hear you as you move, and the ghost can hear you too when your mic is active nearby. It's designed as a cooperative ghost hunting experience.
What happens when your sanity runs out in Phasmophobia?
Low sanity dramatically raises the chance the ghost starts a hunt, cutting the lights and forcing you to hide or flee. There's no traditional health bar — surviving means keeping sanity up with pills and staying near light. During a hunt, stop moving and stay quiet since ghosts track sound and motion.
