Obtaining the Music Box

Like other cursed objects 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 obtain it. Only one 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 approximate location. Within 5 meters, the ghost will approach the Box. You can strategically place the activated Box on the ground to lure the ghost. The Box automatically stops playing after the song concludes. Note that holding the activated Box depletes your sanity.

Triggering a Hunt with the Music Box

The Music Box can initiate either a standard or cursed 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 5 seconds.
  • The ghost's proximity to the player holding the active Box.

For optimal use, carry additional tools like Smudge Sticks to increase survivability during hunts. This allows for ghost identification or objective completion.
