Obtaining the Music Box

Like other cursed items in Phasmophobia, the Music Box has a 1/7 chance of appearing on any given map. Its spawn is entirely random; there's no guaranteed method to find one. Only a single Music Box can spawn per game. Once located, interact with it to pick it up and activate it with another interaction.

Using the Music Box

Several strategies involve the Music Box. Upon activation, it plays a tune. If a ghost is within 20 meters, it will "sing along," revealing its location. Proximity matters: within five meters, the ghost will move towards the Box. You can place the activated Box on the ground as a lure. The music stops automatically after a set time, closing the Box. Note that holding the active Box depletes your sanity.

Triggering a Hunt with the Music Box

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

  • Throwing the active Box.
  • Reaching 0% sanity while holding the active Box.
  • The ghost approaching the Box for over five seconds.
  • Ghost proximity to the player holding the active Box.

For optimal use, consider bringing supplementary tools like Smudge Sticks to mitigate the risk of a hunt, allowing you to identify the ghost or complete other objectives.

This concludes our guide on acquiring and using the Music Box in Phasmophobia. Consult The Escapist for more game tips and information, including details on Prestiging.
