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 and then interact again to activate it.

Utilizing the Music Box

Several strategies involve the Music Box. Here's how it functions:

Upon activation, the Music Box plays a song. If a ghost is within 20 meters, it will sing along, revealing its location. Within five meters, the ghost will approach the Box. You can place the activated Box on the ground as a lure. The Box automatically stops playing after the song concludes.

Note: Holding the Music Box depletes your sanity.

Triggering a Hunt with the Music Box

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

• 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 Music Box usage, consider bringing supplementary tools, such as Smudge Sticks, to enhance survival during hunts and aid in ghost identification or objective completion.
