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 random; there's no guaranteed method to obtain one. Only a single Music Box can spawn per game. Once located, activate it by interacting with it.
Using the Music Box
Several strategies involve the Music Box. Upon activation, it plays a song. If a ghost is within 20 meters, it will "sing along," revealing its location. Proximity within five meters will cause the ghost to approach the Box. Remember, you can place the activated Box on the ground as bait. The Box automatically stops playing and closes after the song finishes. Note that holding the Box reduces 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 playing Box.
- The ghost approaching the Box for over five seconds.
- The ghost's proximity to the player holding the active Box.
For effective use, consider bringing supplementary equipment, such as Smudge Sticks, to improve survival chances during a triggered hunt. This allows for ghost identification and objective completion.
