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 entirely random; there's no guaranteed method to ensure its presence. Only one Music Box can spawn per game. Once located, interact with it to activate its function.

Using the Music Box

Several strategies leverage the Music Box's capabilities. Upon activation, it plays a tune. If a ghost is within 20 meters, it will join in, revealing its approximate location. Proximity matters; within five meters, the ghost will move towards the Music Box. This allows for strategic placement to lure the ghost. The Music Box automatically stops playing after the song concludes. Note that holding the activated Music Box decreases your sanity.

Triggering a Hunt with the Music Box

The Music Box can initiate either a standard or cursed hunt, depending on specific circumstances:

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

For optimal use, consider bringing supplementary tools like Smudge Sticks to increase survival chances during a hunt. This allows for ghost identification or objective completion.
