Obtaining the Music Box

Similar to 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. Upon finding it, interact with it to activate its function.

Using the Music Box

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

Activation 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. The activated Box can be placed on the ground, acting as a lure. The song's completion automatically closes the Box.

Note: Holding the active Music Box depletes sanity.

Triggering a Hunt

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

• Throwing the active Box (not placing it down).
• The player holding the active Box reaching 0% sanity.
• 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 improve survival chances during a triggered hunt, allowing for ghost identification or objective completion.
